To investigate the impact of social buffering on pain, the study team administered mild tail shocks to infant rat pups at postnatal day (PN) 8 or 12, with or without their mothers. They hypothesized that repeated exposure to shock would alter their inflammatory pain responses as adults when experienced between PN5 and 9 (pain sensitive period prior to functional maturation of the amygdala), whereas...
