무엇이 치료인가?

어디를 치료할 것인가?

어떻게 치료할 것인가?

 

이것을 알기 위해서 우리는 "인체의 어디에서 문제가 되어 어떤 길을 거쳐 뇌가 어떻게 통증을 느끼는가"를 알아야 한다.

 

오늘의 주제는 통증의 pathway이다.

 

간단하게 정리하면

물리적 자극(overuse, overcompression, overtraction 등), 화학적 자극(화상 등), 병리적자극(자가면역, 통풍 등)에 의하여 인체의 조직은 염증(inflamation)이 발생하여 통각 수용기(free nerve ending)를 자극하면 nerve에서 전기적 에너지로 척수에 전달, synaps를 통해 화학적자극으로 바뀌고, 다시 spinothalamic tract를 전기적 에너지로 바뀌어 hypothalmus시상하부로 전달되고 대뇌의 sensory area(감각영역)으로 전달된다. 대뇌에서는 전기에너지를 마음(아프다는 감정)으로 변환된다.

 

더 간단하게 정리하면

어떤 자극에 의해 인체의 조직은 염증이 발생하고, 신경의 길을 따라 척수에 전달되고 spinothalamic tract, 시상하부를 거쳐 대뇌에서 통증을 느끼게 된다.

Touch

Touch receptors are the nerve cells that tell your brain about tactile sensations. There are several types of touch receptors, but they can be divded into two groups (1) mechanoreceptors that tell you about sensations of pushing, pulling or movement, (2) thermoreceptors that tell you about sensations of temperature.

The mechanoreceptors contain the most types of touch receptors.

 

  • Free nerve endings informs the brain about pain, and they are located over the entire body.
  • Pacinian corpuscles detects pressure, telling the brain when a limb has moved. After the brain has told a limb, such as an arm, to move, the pacinian corpuscles tells the brain that that limb has actually moved into the correct position.

 

  • The Tactile Corpuscles of Meissner are grouped on the skin of the fingertips, lips, and orifices of the body and the nipples. Only stimulated when touched, meissner corpuscles tells the brain the shape and feel of an object in the hand, or the touch of a kiss. They adjust constantly to the environment, which is why the brain eventually ignores clothing that you are wearing.

Thermoreceptors are the other major group of touch receptors. There are two types of thermoreceptors, the end-bulb of Krause, which detects cold, and Ruffini's end organ, which detects heat.

  • The end-bulb of Krause can be found in the skin, conjunctiva, lips, and tougue.
  • Ruffini's end organs are found over the entire body in the skin.

Figure 2: Pain pathways I

Image of the spinothalamic tracts


Pain fibres terminate mainly in the superficial dorsal horn (laminae I- II). Ad fibres enter lamina I (and V) and synapse on a second set of neurons. These neurons will carry the signal to the thalamus and are part of the spinothalamic tract (STT). The C fibres enter the spinal cord and synapse on lamina I cells and lamina II interneurons - neurons that make synaptic connections with other cells within the local environment. The interneurons convey the signal to the STT cells that reside mainly in laminae I, IV and V. The axons of the STT cells project across the spinal cord to the STT, which is located in the ventrolateral quadrant of the contralateral spinal cord white matter. 

Figure 3: Temperature and pain pathways II



The STT transmits information about temperature and pain, as well as “simple” touch (i.e. related to localisation of stimulus) and visceral sensations. It mediates the discriminative and arousal-emotional components of these sensations by separating out the “fast” (discriminative aspect) and “slow” (affective aspect) components of pain into different regions of the tract that are transmitted in parallel to the thalamus. Discriminative pain reaches the thalamus directly without making connections elsewhere in the nervous system, whereas arousal-emotional pain reaches the thalamus indirectly via connections with brainstem regions. Slow pain is also transmitted by other pathways such as the spinoreticular tract.

The STT may be divided into the lateral STT and the anterior STT. Pain and temperature is transmitted mainly in the lateral STT. The lateral-STT transmits the sensations of both fast and slow pain. The anterior STT conveys sensations of simple touch (stimulus localisation). The STT ascends the entire length of the cord and the brainstem, staying in about the same location all the way up. It is here in the brainstem that the different modalities separate out to terminate in different thalamic and brainstem nuclei. The fast pain STT axons terminate in the ventroposterior nucleus, which comprises the ventral posterolateral (VPL) and ventral posteromedial (VPM) and the posterior (PO) nuclei. These axons seem to mediate mainly the sense of “simple touch” and pain. These sensations are separated within the thalamus: neurons in the VPL and VPM do not respond specifically to noxious stimulation, whereas cells in the PO receive inputs from both low- and high-threshold afferents. These cells are associated with the conscious perception of pain.

The slow pain-STT axons innervate the non-specific intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus, and the reticular formation in the brainstem. These axons form at least part of the forebrain pain pathway associated with the affective quality (unpleasantness and fear of further injury) of pain and can be dissociated from the discriminative quality (the type and nature of the injury itself). The projections to the reticular formation may underlie the arousal effects of painful stimuli. The arousal itself may activate noradrenergic neurons in the locus coeruleus, and thus decrease the upward pain transmission. This may be an example of a negative feedback loop in the nervous system.

It has long been known that the STT is an important pain pathway because when it is damaged, pain and temperature sense is abolished on the contralateral side of the body below the lesion. It has been used, as a last resort, by surgeons to relieve intractable cancer pain. However, pain is not permanently abolished because of preservation of one side of the bilateral indirect pathways. Also, the transmission of simple tactile modalities (detection, location) via the anterior STT explains why touch sensation is preserved in people with dorsal column lesions (although they are unable to discriminate the nature of the stimulus).
