Descending control of nociception in insects? [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2022
Modulation of nociception allows animals to optimize chances of survival by adapting their behaviour in different contexts. In mammals, this is executed by neurons from the brain and is referred to as the descending control of nociception.

When Differential Descending Control of Speed Matters: Descending Modulation of A- versus C-Fiber Evoked Spinal Nociception. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Pain Res (Lausanne), 2022
Descending pain modulatory systems (DPMS) that originate within the brain and act to modulate spinal nociceptive transmission are a major determinant of the acute and chronic pain experience.

Segmental and descending control of primary afferent input to the spinal lamina X. [PDF]

open access: yesPain, 2022
Despite being involved in a number of functions, such as nociception and locomotion, spinal lamina X remains one of the least studied central nervous system regions.

Speed dependent descending control of freezing behavior in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2018
Looming discs are perceived as an innate threat by flies and elicit a survival response. Here, the authors report that flies exhibit either an escape or freezing response depending on their walking speed and identify the involvement of a pair of neurons ...
