Analysis of nociceptive information encoded in the temporal discharge patterns of cutaneous C-fibers
The generation of pain signals from primary afferent neurons is explained by a labeled-line code. However, this notion cannot apply in a simple way to cutaneous C-fibers, which carry signals from a variety of receptors that respond to various stimuli including agonist chemicals. To represent the dis...
