The free nerve endings of nocireceptors (NOY-suh-ree-sep-torz) are responsible for producing this feeling, which is controlled by the dorsal column and medial lemniscus (lem-NIHS-cuss).
The free nerve endings of nocireceptors (NOY-suh-ree-sep-torz) are responsible for producing this feeling, which is controlled by the dorsal column and medial lemniscus (lem-NIHS-cuss). Substance P is an inhibitory neurotransmitter on the pathway transmitting this feeling. Release of substance P is blocked by endorphins to reduce this. It can also be reduced by opiates, such as morphine, or by analgesics. For 10 points, identify this unpleasant feeling that often results from getting hurt.
