Activation of glial cells causes inflammation in the brain of fibromyalgia patients

The causes of the difficult-to-treat pain syndrome fibromyalgia are largely unknown. Using PET brain imaging, researchers at Karolinska Institutet and Harvard University have now shown that glial cells - the central nervous system's immune cells - are activated in the brains of patients with fibromyalgia. The finding opens the way for new therapies
