What is the role of glial cells for pain perception?


▸ If spinal glial cells are activated, they can reduce the experience of pain.

▸ If glial cells are damaged or inactive, perception of pain increases.

▸ Glial cells in the spinal cord appear to block transmission of endorphins to the periaqueductal grey.

▸ Spinal glial cells are activated by the immune system and may amplify chronic pain.
