Fig. 2. — Responses (Resp.) from 2 classes of neuron in VPL. Intact rat (INT): multireceptive neuron (MR; top traces) exhibiting a response to graded mechanical stimulation (Stim.; bottom trace). Insets show higher speed records of the response to individual stimuli. Nociceptive-specific neurons (NS; bottom traces) are unresponsive to gentle cutaneous stimulation but increase their firing to Pinch in the receptive field. Sp, spontaneous; Br, Brush; P, Pinch. Top traces above raw records indicate output of spike discriminator (above) and time of stimulus onset (below).
