Neuropathic pain and allodynia may arise from sensitization of central circuits. We report a mechanism of disinhibition-based central sensitization resulting from long-term depression (LTD) of GABAergic interneurons as a consequence of TRPV1 activation in the spinal cord. Intrathecal administration of TRPV1 agonists led to mechanical allodynia that was not dependent on peripheral TRPV1 neurons....

The effects of intravenous clonidine and tizanidine on nociceptive neurons in the nucleus ventralis posterolateralis (VPL) of the thalamus, a key station in the lateral system of ascending pain pathways, were evaluated in urethane-chloralose anesthetized cats. Intravenous clonidine and tizanidine produced a dose-dependent (5 and 10 micrograms/kg, and 25 and 50 micrograms/kg, respectively) suppr...

This Review highlights selected frontiers in pruritus research and focuses on recently attained insights into the neurophysiological, neuroimmunological, and neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying skin-derived itch (pruritogenic pruritus), which may affect future antipruritic strategies. Special attention is paid to newly identified itch-specific neuronal pathways in the spinothalamic tract that ...

Percutaneous upper cervical cordotomy continues to be performed on patients suffering from several types of severe chronic pain. It is believed that the operation is effective because it cuts the spinothalamic tract (STT), a primary pathway carrying nociceptive information from the spinal cord to the brain in humans. In recent years, there has been controversy regarding the location of STT axon...

The effects of glutamate (Glu), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glycine (Gly), serotonin (5-HT), norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA), and acetylcholine (ACh) were examined in this study by iontophoretic application onto primate spinothalamic tract (STT) neurons identified antidromically by stimulation in the contralateral thalamus. Drugs were tested for effects on background activity, Glu-induce...

The spinothalamic tract (STT) is the primary pathway carrying nociceptive information from the spinal cord to the brain in humans. The aim of this study was to understand better the organization of STT axons within the spinal cord white matter of monkeys. The location of STT axons was determined using method of antidromic activation. Twenty-six lumbar STT cells were isolated. Nineteen were clas...

Specific neuronal populations are known to express calcium binding proteins (CBP) such as calbindin (CB), parvalbumin (PV) and calretinin (CR). These CBP can act as calcium buffers that modify spatiotemporal characteristics of intracellular calcium transients and affect calcium homeostasis in neurons. It was recently shown that changes in neuronal CBP expression can have significant modulatory ...

The primate posterior thalamus has been proposed to contribute to pain sensation, but its precise role is unclear. This is in part because spinothalamic tract (STT) neurons that project to the posterior thalamus have received little attention. In this study, antidromic mapping was used to identify individual STT neurons with axons that projected specifically to the posterior thalamus in Macaca ...

We investigated the role of mechanosensitive spinothalamic tract (STT) neurons in mediating 1) the itch evoked by intradermal injection of histamine, 2) the enhanced sense of itch evoked by innocuous stroking (alloknesis), and 3) the enhanced pain evoked by punctate stimulation (hyperalgesia) of the skin surrounding the injection site. Responses to intradermal injections of histamine and capsai...

Nitric oxide (NO) has been proposed to contribute to the development of hyperalgesia by activating the NO/guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) signal transduction pathway in the spinal cord. We have examined the effects of NO on the responses of primate spinothalamic tract (STT) neurons to peripheral cutaneous stimuli and on the sensitization of STT cells following intradermal injection ...
