A spinal neural circuitry for converting touch to itch sensation

Light touch can sometimes induce unpleasant itch sensation but the neural correlates of this conversion are not well studied. Here, the authors provide evidence that Tac2 expressing spinal interneurons are connected to gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) neurons and form an integral part of th...

description Light touch can sometimes induce unpleasant itch sensation but the neural correlates of this conversion are not well studied. Here, the authors provide evidence that Tac2 expressing spinal interneurons are connected to gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) neurons and form an integral part of the neural circuit underlying touch evoked itch.
