Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative musculoskeletal disease that causes articular cartilage degeneration and chronic pain. Research into OA animal models suggests that elevated NGF levels in the synovium contribute to pain and central sensitization (CS). However, it is unclear whether syno...
