Description Peripheral neuropathic pain (PNP) frequently occurs as a consequence of nerve injury. Progress in our knowledge of PNP induction mechanisms depends upon the utilization of appropriate experimental models in rodents based on various types of peripheral nerve lesions. In this review, we draw attention to current knowledge on basic cellular and molecular events in various experimental models used to induce the PNP symptoms.
