[3H] imipramine binding sites are decreased in platelets of chronic pain patients. 1987

G Magni, and F Andreoli, and C Arduino, and D Arsie, and F Ceccherelli, and F Ambrosio, and M Eandi

Tritiated imipramine binding to whole platelets was measured in sixteen chronic pain patients not suffering from major depression and in a control group. Maximum binding was significantly lower in chronic pain patients than in the control group, whereas the binding affinity was not significantly different.
