The database is made up of many studies on different conditions and includes humans, mice, pigs and rats. It includes nueropathic pain, inflammatory pain and others. The database can help to identify genes and pathways that are differentially expressed under specified experimental conditions through meta analysis, or it can identify pain conditions in which a gene is differentially expressed. More information about the website can be found in our paper here! You can also visit our lab website for more resources here! Using meta analysis, the database can also identify the pain genes most common to the experimental condition, or the most common pain genes overall.
The database continues to grow! So far, the database contains 338 contrasts across many experimental conditions, allowing pain researchers to explore many different types of pain.
