Spinal cord plasticity in peripheral inflammatory pain
… potentiate monosynaptic A δ or monosynaptic C-fibre input, the predominant input to these neurons. Spontaneous excitatory input was significantly elevated in the subset of neurons that received monosynaptic A δ-fibre input only, regardless of inflammation. It has recently been shown that the …

Plasticity in mice nociceptive spinal circuits -role of cell adhesion molecules.
… (NWR), laminar organization of the nociceptive C-fibre input to the spinal cord and plastic mechanisms in the mouse and rat. On this basis, the role of adhesion molecules, in particular L1 adhesion molecules, in the nociceptive system is analyzed for the first time by using mutated mice. Results: …

Mechanisms of thermal sensitivity in rodent primary afferent neurons innervating the skin
… channels. The majority of cold sensitive A and C fibre nociceptors as well as thermoreceptors were sensitive to menthol, indicating that TRPM8 is the transducer of cold on these afferents. The poor correlation of TRPA1 expression and cold sensitivity in nociceptive A and C fibres indicates that …

Spotting pain in the brain. Towards a useful animal model of pain
… effects on the electroencephalogram, CO2 laser C fibre evoked potentials (LCEP) may be used to distinguish between the sedative and analgesic effect of a drug in anaesthetized rats. To clarify the implications whether LCEP can provide information about central changes in anaesthetized and …

Verhalten von C-Fasern der Maus während repetitiver elektrischer Stimulation : Bedeutung für die Fasererregbarkeit und die Rolle von Ih und Nav1.8
Die Axone im peripheren Nerven unterliegen während elektrischer Erregung kontinuierlichen dynamischen Änderungen ihrer Membraneigenschaften. Auf ein Aktionspotential folgt zunächst die absolute und die relative Refraktärperiode, dann eine Periode der Übererregbarkeit („superexcitability“) und …

Temporal Dynamics of Heat Pain Sensations
The moment-to-moment fluctuations in pain-evoked sensory and emotional qualities, and how the pain experience differs between sexes are not well understood. Therefore, this thesis sought to 1) characterise the temporal profiles of the most prominent noxious heat-evoked sensations, 2) characterise …
