Physiological temperatures drive glutamate release onto trigeminal superficial dorsal horn neurons.
Trigeminal sensory afferent fibers terminating in nucleus caudalis (Vc) relay sensory information from craniofacial regions to the brain and are known to express transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels. TRP channels are activated by H(+), thermal, and chemical stimuli. The present study investigated the relationships among the spontaneous release of glutamate, temperature, and TRPV1 loc...
متن کاملTrigeminal Medullary Dorsal Horn Neurons Activated by Nasal Stimulation Coexpress AMPA, NMDA, and NK1 Receptors
Afferent information initiating the cardiorespiratory responses during nasal stimulation projects from the nasal passages to neurons within the trigeminal medullary dorsal horn (MDH) via the anterior ethmoidal nerve (AEN). Central AEN terminals are thought to release glutamate to activate the MDH neurons. This study was designed to determine which neurotransmitter receptors (AMPA, kainate, or N...
متن کاملLow-threshold primary afferent drive onto GABAergic interneurons in the superficial dorsal horn of the mouse.
Inhibition in the spinal cord dorsal horn is crucial for maintaining separation of touch and pain modalities. Disruption of this inhibition results in allodynia, allowing low-threshold drive onto pain and temperature-sensitive projection neurons. This low-threshold (LT) excitatory pathway is normally under strong inhibition. We hypothesized that superficial dorsal horn inhibitory neurons, which...
متن کاملUnderstanding the regional specificity of neurons in the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis and spinal dorsal horn
Neurons in the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis (Vc) and spinal cord dorsal horn (SDH) play important roles in modulating and relaying pain signals to the higher centers of the central nervous system (CNS). Morphologically, many aspects including a laminated structure, cytoarchitecture and cellular elements in these two central regions are very similar [1 ,2, 3, 4] . Most nociceptive afferents wi...
