Neural circuitry underlying nocifensive response depends on the type of reflex. But, when we talk about withdrawal response, what are the neural elements involved?
It is obvious that there has to be a reflex arc between nociceptive input and the spinal motor neurons, in other words, as you mentioned between fibers of lamina I and the motor neurons. Maybe we, to whom you have posed the question, do not know the interneurons involved. However, since you have mentioned "neuroanatomy" as your area of specialty or interest, you can enlighten us with the answer to your question which has gone unanswered for 4 years. thanks.
