Defining a Spinal Microcircuit that Gates Myelinated Afferent Input: Implications for Tactile Allodynia

Summary: Chronic pain presents a major unmet clinical problem. The development of more effective treatments is hindered by our limited understanding of the neuronal circuits underlying sensory perception. Here, we show that parvalbumin (PV)-expressing dorsal horn interneurons modulate the passage of...
