NEUR30004 Lecture Notes - Lecture 13: Mecha, Grey Matter, Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor
Document Summary
L13 talk about spinal integration and hyper sensitivity. What happens to pain the mechanims of transduction. What happens to the signal about noxious stimuli as it passes to the brain stem coding and trasmition of pain and transmition to the spinal cord and brain today: We can define nociceptive pain which is acute and comes from damage to tissue. 1 and 5 characterisitic pattern of termination in the different layers second order neurons originate in different lamina and project controlaterally and ascend towards the brain taking the information to the brain for further coding. We can define multiple types of output neurons for output pathways the combination of all of this shapes the final perception of pain important area to define the first part of the signal last slide for complexity. Multiple types of neurons both projection and interneurons in this circuitary.
