Ventral intraspinal microstimulation alters neural population-level nociceptive activity in rats including after spinal cord injury
Doubling of the number of electrodes with altered pinch responsiveness after ISMS suggests that ISMS causes a lasting increase in the spatial spread of evoked sensory activity. That this change favored inhibition in 1 cohort is consistent with the possibility of ventral ISMS promoting broad inhibitory control of nociceptive activity.
