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.
