Oct 1, 2022 · Pain is an unpleasant experience that results from both physical and psychological responses to injury. A complex set of pathways transmits pain messages from the periphery to the central nervous system, where control occurs from higher centres. Primary afferent pain fibres synapse with second-order neurons in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord ...
Migraine pathophysiology: anatomy of the trigeminovascular pathway and associated neurological symptoms, cortical spreading depression, sensitization, and modulation of pain Pain . 2013 Dec:154 Suppl 1:S44-53. doi: 10.1016/j.pain.2013.07.021.

Nov 14, 2017 · Anatomy of the Pain Pathway. Transduction: Conversion of a noxious stimuli (chemical, mechanical, or thermal) into electrical energy. Transmission: Electrical stimulus is sent to the dorsal horn of the spinal cord and synapse at the 2nd order neuron. Modulation: Inhibition vs amplification of signal (facilitated by EAA)
Introduction. Once a pain signal from the ascending pathway reaches the somatosensory cortex, it triggers the descending pain modulatory system. The goal of this pathway is to allow the organism to function enough to respond to the pain source by reducing the pain signal through neuronal inhibition ie the "top down" modulation of pain.
Oct 1, 2014 · Fig. 1. Pain and temperature transmission from receptors in the skin ascend in the spinal cord to the postcentral gyrus via the lateral spinothalamic tract. First-order neurons transmit this sensory information via pseudounipolar neurons that enter the spinal cord in the Lissauer tract where they synapse in the Rexed lamina. Second-order neurons from the dorsal horn then decussate at the ...
