Modeling the daily rhythm of human pain processing in the dorsal horn

Response curve and NMDA activation plots [see Eq (3)].
A: Response functions of the projection (blue), excitatory (green), and inhibitory (red) neural populations for varying average input firing rates (on the x-axis). Parameters for these curves were chosen to match experiments presented in [21]. B: Activation curve for the NMDA-mediated synaptic input (M∞), shown as a fraction of the maximum synaptic weight gNMDA.
