To address this gap, several efforts have been made to obtain more translatable neuronal models for phenotypic screening. These models allow the selection of active compounds without predetermined knowledge of drug targets. In this review, we present an overview of various existing models within the field, examining their strengths and limitations, particularly in the context of neuropathic pain research. We illustrate the usefulness of these models through a comparative review in three crucial areas: i) the development of novel phenotypic screening strategies specifically for neuropathic pain, ii) the validation of the models for both primary and secondary screening assays, and iii) the use of the models in target deconvolution processes PB Elsevier SN 1043-6618 YR 2024 FD 2024 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/33869 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/33869 LA eng NO Pharmacological Research, Volume 202, 2024, 107111 NO The authors disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: The research for this work was supported by the Agencia Estatal de Investigación (PID2020-119428RB-I00) and Xunta de Galicia (ED431C 2022/20) and European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
