SUMMARY:CEMO monthly seminar 
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to invite you to our next seminar\, which will
  take place on June 25th in Pasteur 2\, from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.&nbsp\;Our s
 peaker will be Mathilde Charlier\, a PhD student (teaching assistant) from
  the Group of neuropharmacology (NFAR\, PI: Emmanuel Hermans).Title of the
  talk:Involvement of cystine/glutamate exchanger in the development and ma
 intenance of chronic painAbstract:&nbsp\;Chronic pain represents a major p
 ublic health concern\, as many conventional analgesic treatments show limi
 ted efficacy in managing this condition. It is therefore essential to inve
 stigate the underlying mechanisms involved in chronic pain development and
  maintenance.One hypothesis frequently proposed to explain chronic pain me
 chanisms involves disrupted glutamatergic homeostasis\, which contributes 
 to central sensitization.Several lines of evidence suggest that system xc
 −\, a cystine/glutamate antiporter expressed in glial cells\, may partic
 ipate in the establishment and/or maintenance of this sensitization by mod
 ulating glutamatergic signaling.This seminar will present our recent findi
 ngs obtained in a neuropathic pain model using inducible conditional Cre-l
 ox mice to genetically delete system xc−\, and will discuss the contribu
 tion of this transporter to the mechanisms underlying pain sensitization.T
 he seminar will also be available online via Teams:CEMO seminar | Meeting-
