This study provides novel and convincing evidence that both dopamine D1 and D2 expressing neurons in the nucleus accumbens shell are crucial for the expression of cue-guided action selection, a ...

Researchers have mapped the complete pathway for sensing cool temperatures from skin to brain, revealing a spinal cord ...

A newly mapped neural circuit shows how our skin senses cool temperatures and sends that info to the brain, revealing an unexpected amplifier in the spinal cord and offering insight into cold-related ...

A groundbreaking study has mapped the full neural circuit that carries cool temperature signals from the skin to the brain.

Acute alcohol exposure impairs CRF-induced cholinergic activity.

Researchers discover a complete skin-to-brain neural circuit for temperature sensing, a finding that could help spur medical innovations such as new treatments for temperature-associated pain ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have illuminated a complete sensory pathway showing how the skin communicates the temperature of its ...

A neuronal mechanism pumps the brakes on pain, but failure of these brakes can cause long-lasting pain. The discovery could ...

In acute pain, IA increases – acting like a natural sedative for the pain pathways – but in chronic pain, this current doesn’t cause them to rise, and the neurons become hyperactive.
