An Intra-brainstem Circuit for Pain-induced Inhibition of Itch
2024-07-04
Abstract excerpt
Pain and itch are unpleasant and distinct sensations that give rise to behaviors such as reflexive withdrawal and scratching in humans and mice. Interestingly, it has been observed that pain modulate itch through the neural circuits housed in the brain and spinal cord. However, we are yet to fully understand the identities of and mechanisms by which specific neural circuits mediate pain-induced modulation of itch....
