Spinal Microcircuits and the Regulation of Itch
Itch is a somatosensory percept that is triggered by irritants at the skin’s surface. However, the manner in which itch is coded in the nervous system remains almost completely unknown. Recent work has uncovered a key role of spinal interneurons in the modulation of itch. Here we discuss these recent discoveries in the context of our understanding of spinal microcircuitry, highlighting the poss...

متن کاملEffects of ageing on spinal motor and autonomic pain responses.
The course of ageing leads to various changes in the nervous system, which can affect pain processing in the elderly. However, the affection of different components of the nociceptive system remains unclear. To investigate basic nocifensive responses, we compared age-related changes of autonomic and motor reflex responses to noxious electrical stimulation. In 39 healthy young subjects (mean +/-...
متن کامل[Mechanism of spinal pain transmission and its regulation].
Morphine has been widely used for the treatment of acute, chronic, and cancer pain and is considered the strongest analgesic in clinical care. Conversely, morphine-induced analgesia may be accompanied by several side effects. Animal studies have demonstrated that low doses of morphine administered intrathecally can produce reliable analgesia for thermal, mechanical, and chemical nociceptive sti...
متن کاملEffects of general anesthetics on visceral pain transmission in the spinal cord
Current evidence suggests an analgesic role for the spinal cord action of general anesthetics; however, the cellular population and intracellular mechanisms underlying anti-visceral pain by general anesthetics still remain unclear. It is known that visceral nociceptive signals are transmited via post-synaptic dorsal column (PSDC) and spinothalamic tract (STT) neuronal pathways and that the PSDC...
