are not usually nocioreceptors but can be recruited if C Fibers are damaged
A beta
afferent fibers but can have an efferent component to begin inflammatory and sensitization process
C
Thermal ranges of pain
>43
<8
Substances released from nerve endings during hyperalgesia
substance P
calcitonin
4 inflammatory factors that are released by capillaries
Neutrophils
Leukocytes
bradykinin
nerve growth factor
Spinal Cord Receptors that Modulate release of Substance P
5HT – serotonin receptors
GABA

α2
Pathway for temperature, touch, pain specific localization, somatic
spinothalamic
Pathway for Reflex withdrawal, increased arousal and muscle activity, initiates BP changes
spinoreticular
Pathway of large, fast, override channels
spinomesencephalic
Pathway of addiction, motivation, fear, memory, behavior, autonomic reaction
spinolimbic
Pathway of chronic pain
ipsilateral
spinocervical
Ipsilateral pain pathway
spinocervical
Areas that are the root for all supra spinal modulation
PAG
Raphe nucleus
Most effective way to inhibit pain is in the
spinothalamic tract
endogenous agents that act pre-synaptically to modulate the pain response (ie they decrease Calcium conductance)
serotonin 5-HT
NorAdrenergic
Enkephalin
Non pain stimulus is now exciting pain
Allydonia
What does pain do to the immune system
depresses the reticuloendothelial system
What is the only way to completely block the SNS response to pain
local anesthetic block
6 sources of pain that NSAIDS are particularly good at treating
Post Traumatic Injury
Inflammatory Pain: Osteoarthritis Patients
Dysmenorrhea: Obstetric Patients – D&C
Renal Colic: Opiods ↑ sphincter tone – nonsteroidal do not!
Billiary Obstruction
pts with caffeine withdrawal
What are the three endogenous opioid prohormones
POMC
Proenkephalin
Prodynorphin
Where is POMC syntesized
Major site of synthesis is the pituitary, but synthesis also occurs in the pancreas and placenta
Endogenous opioid of the brain, SC, and periphery that prefers to bind at K
dynorphin
Endogenous opioid of the brain, SC, and periphery especially the adrenal medulla that prefers to bind at mu and delta
Enkephalin
Pre-cursor for beta-endorphins
POMC
Drug used in L&D because it binds to Kappa receptors with minimal resp. depression
(butorphanol) Stadol
2 CV unstable opioids
demerol
morphine
Primary receptor sites of all IV opioids
mu
Area of the brain responsible for mood, euphoria, tranquility, and rewarding properties; responsible for addictive properties of the drug
Nucleus accumbens
Mu receptor response that is not blunted with tolerance
miosis
What receptors does glutamate bind to
NMDA
AMPA
What receptors does sub P bind to
Neurokinin 1+2
Sharp localized pain transmitted over type A delta fibers that alerts the subject that an injury has occurred
epicritic pain
Type of pain transmitted over type C fibers that is annoying and urges the subject to rest the injured area
protopathic pain
Mu receptors in the higher brain are usually post-synaptic and respond by
increasing potassium conductance
Two receptor types that are primarily located in the spinal cord and the periphery
Delta
Kappa
What is the MOA of Mu receptors
Increases potassium conductance.
decreases calcium conductance
What is the MOA of Delta receptors
Increases potassium conductance.
Increases calcium conductance
Two receptors that depress pain AND respiratory fxn
Mu 2
Delta
Two receptors that provide analgesia and miosis
Mu 1
Kappa
Receptor that causes euphoria, hypothermia, and bradycardia
Mu 1

Opioid partial agonist
nalbuphine Nubain
butorphanol Stadol
Where are mu receptors dense in the brain
amygdala
reticular formation
periaqueductal grey areas
Where do primary pain conduction fibers synapse in the dorsal root horn
1, 2, 5, 10
