| type C nerve fiber | The Group C fibers are unmyelinated and have a small diameter and low conduction velocity, whereas Groups A and B are myelinated. Group C fibers include postganglionic fibers in the autonomic nervous system (ANS), and nerve fibers at the dorsal roots (IV fiber). These fibers carry sensory information. Damage or injury to nerve fibers causes neuropathic pain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_C_nerve_fiber | ILX:0796516 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/11/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/11/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |
| slowly adapting type 1 (SA1) nerve fiber | SA1 and RA afferent fibers differ both in their ability to convey information about the fine spatial structure of tactile stimuli and in their frequency sensitivity profiles. Two types of mechanoreceptive afferent fibers in human glabrous skin have been shown to convey information about the spatial structure of tactile stimuli: rapidly adapting (RA) and slowly adapting type 1 (SA1) fibers (see Johnson and Hsiao 1992 for a review). https://doi.org/10.1152/jn.00877.2005 | ILX:0796517 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/11/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/11/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |

| low-threshold mechanoreceptor (LTMR) neuron | The mammalian cutaneous low-threshold mechanoreceptors (LTMRs) are a diverse set of primary somatosensory neurons that function to sense external mechanical force. Generally, LTMRs are composed of Aβ-LTMRs, Aδ-LTMRs, and C-LTMRs, which have distinct molecular, physiological, anatomical, and functional features. https://doi.org/10.1002/wdev.229 | ILX:0796519 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/11/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/11/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |
| high-threshold mechanoreceptor (HTMR) neuron | High-threshold mechanoreceptors (HTMRs) are a broad category of mechanonociceptive sensory neurons that are optimally excited by noxious mechanical stimuli.

| field receptor sensory neuron | Field receptor neurons (Aβ Field‑LTMRs) are a subtype of large-diameter, fast-conducting Aβ low-threshold mechanoreceptors that innervate hairy skin via circumferential (field-type) endings, exhibiting weak but spatially distributed mechanosensitivity and responding to gentle stroking over broad receptive fields. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41583-021-00489-x | ILX:0796522 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/11/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/11/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |
| heat-sensitive sensory neuron | A heat-sensitive sensory neuron is a type of peripheral sensory neuron that responds to increases in temperature and expresses thermosensitive ion channels such as TRPV1, mediating the detection of noxious or innocuous heat stimuli. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRPV1 | ILX:0796523 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/11/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/11/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |

| nociceptive circuit | Nociception refers to the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS) processing of noxious stimuli, such as tissue injury and temperature extremes, which activate nociceptors and their pathways. Pain is the subjective experience one feels as a result of the activation of these pathways.

| proprioceptive circuit | The proprioceptive circuit refers to the neural pathways and structures that enable the sense of body position, movement, and force. This system relies on proprioceptors, specialized sensory neurons located in muscles, tendons, and joints, which detect changes in length, tension, and joint angles. These sensory neurons send signals to the central nervous system, allowing the brain to coordinate and control movement. https://doi.org/10.1002/dvdy.24611 | ILX:0796532 | 1 | SPARC SAWG | 07/12/2025 | SPARC SAWG | term | 07/12/2025 | 0 | Ilias Ziogas | Ilias Ziogas |
