How do spinal circuits mediating tactile sensation and pain get entangled to evoke
allodynia, ie, pain sensation, in response to a normally innocuous stimulus? Recent
breakthroughs are now closing this long-standing, critical gap. VGLUT3-expressing neurons
and their polysynaptic connectivity to calretinin-expressing neurons are now identified as
key determinants of the spinal circuitry underlying mechanical allodynia.
