Abstract excerpt
Cutaneous myelinated nociceptors are known to exhibit considerable heterogeneity in their response to noxious heat. In the present experiments, we studied heat sensitivity among myelinated nociceptors during early postnatal life to determine whether this heterogeneity is correlated with other physiological and anatomical properties. A total of 129 cutaneous myelinated nociceptors were recorded intracellularly and...
