A pathway from midcingulate cortex to posterior insula gates nociceptive hypersensitivity
2017
The authors identify the midcingulate cortex as a region that gates nociceptive plasticity without modulating basal nociception or the affective component of acute pain in mice. They identify a novel pathway from the midcingulate cortex to the posterior insula that recruits descending serotonergic projections to facilitate nociception.
