Intradermal capsaicin in humans causes pain, primary hyperalgesia, and secondary mechanical hyperalgesia and allodynia. Parallel changes occur in the responses of primate spinothalamic tract cells and in rat behavior. Neurotransmitters that trigger secondary mechanical hyperalgesia and allodynia include excitatory amino acids and substance P. Secondary mechanical allodynia is actively maintained by central mechanisms. Our group has investigated mechanisms of central sensitization of nociceptive neurons by examining the responses to intradermal injection of capsaicin. These experiments are pertinent to issues raised by coderre & katz (sect. 2).

Distribution studies suggest that substance P is a transmitter released by nociceptive primary afferent fibres. Acceptance of this role, however, needs more electro-physiological comparisons of the effects of substance P and the transmitter released by primary afferents on the membrane properties of dorsal horn neurones. The transmission of impulses from nociceptive afferents to supraspinal areas is subject to inhibition of both segmental and supraspinal origin. Segmental inhibition probably involves glycine and γ-aminobutyric acid as transmitters. Of supraspinal inhibitions investigated in the cat none have been shown to involve amino acids, enkephalins or 5-hydroxytryptamine but there is evidence to suggest a role for noradrenaline.
