Journal ArticleDOI
A putative flip–flop switch for control of REM sleep
TL;DR: A brainstem flip–flop switch is proposed, consisting of mutually inhibitory REM-off and REM-on areas in the mesopontine tegmentum that contain GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid)-ergic neurons that heavily innervate the other.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peripheral nerve injury triggers noradrenergic sprouting within dorsal root ganglia
TL;DR: It is reported that, after sciatic nerve ligation, noradrenergic perivascular axons in rats sprout into dorsal root ganglia and form basket-like structures around large-diameter axotomized sensory neurons; sympathetic stimulation can activate such neurons repetitively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heritability of nociception I: responses of 11 inbred mouse strains on 12 measures of nociception.

TL;DR: This report begins to systematically describe and characterize genetic variability of nociception in a mammalian species, Mus musculus, using 11 readily-available inbred mouse strains and demonstrates the existence of clear strain differences in each assay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autotomy following peripheral nerve lesions: experimental anaesthesia dolorosa.
P. D. Wall,Marshall Devor,Marshall Devor,R. Inbal,R. Inbal,J. W. Scadding,J. W. Scadding,D. Schonfeld,D. Schonfeld,Z. Seltzer,Z. Seltzer,M. M. Tomkiewicz,M. M. Tomkiewicz +12 more
TL;DR: The time course and degree of autotomy following various types of nerve injury in rats and mice is described and reasons are given to propose that autotomy is triggered by an abnormal afferent barrage generated in the cut end of the nerve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensory afferent impulses originate from dorsal root ganglia as well as from the periphery in normal and nerve injured rats
Patrick D. Wall,Marshall Devor +1 more
TL;DR: The dorsal root ganglion with its ongoing activity and mechanical sensitivity could be a source of pain producing impulses and could particularly contribute to pain in those conditions of peripheral nerve damage where pain persists after peripheral anaesthesia or where vertebral manipulation is painful.
