New paper out in @PNASNews. Thalamic CGRP neurons form a spinothalamic pain pathway relaying pain signal to the amygdala & insular, but not sensory cortex to encode the affective dimension of pain. Huge congrats to first author @SJ_J_Kang_24 & coauthors. https://t.co/1GENFL7tX1

What people are saying
Several posts highlight the groundbreaking nature of identifying a distinct neural circuit for affective pain, emphasizing words like 'revealed,' 'link,' and 'new targets.' The tone conveys excitement and anticipation about how this research might influence future pain therapies and understanding of emotional suffering, demonstrating high engagement and perceived importance.
Most discussions acknowledge the significance of the research, with some explicitly supporting its implications for understanding pain mechanisms, as seen in comments about the 'neural circuits linking physical pain to emotional suffering' and the call fo
The posts demonstrate high curiosity, frequently asking questions about potential advances or implications, such as 'What advances do you think may arise?' and emphasizing the novelty of the findings.
Several discussions reference specific neural pathways, brain regions, and potential applications, showing deeper analytical interest, like mentions of 'relaying pain signals to the amygdala' and 'targets for treating conditions like migraine and PTSD.'
The posts reflect a perception of high impact, with some describing the research as a 'game changer' or noting its potential for formulating new treatments for emotionally-focused chronic pain conditions, suggesting strong perceived influence on future re
