AB Optimal  postoperative  pain  management  is  a  clinical  priority  because  poorly  managed  pain  may  delay  functional  recovery  from  surgery  and  /or  lead  to  chronic  pain.1  Nevertheless,  despite  considerable  effort  to  improve  postoperative  pain  management,  one  third  of  patients  continue  to  suffer  from  moderate  to  severe  pain.2  The  lack  of  consistently  effective  analgesics  devoid  of  deleterious  consequences  remains  one  of  the  main  causes  of  the  inadequacy  of  postoperative  pain  management.  Therefore,  identification  of  novel  therapeutic  targets  and  more  effective  management  strategies  remain  high  priorities  in  pain  research.
