在清醒、行为正常的猴[松鼠]猴的腹侧后丘脑记录的 76 个皮肤激活神经元中，有 9 个神经元对无害的皮肤刺激感到微弱兴奋，并且只有当有害的机械皮肤刺激在小的对侧感受野内传递时才会产生最大反应。能够编码有害刺激的空间和时间特征的神经元位于清醒灵长类动物的腹侧后丘脑中。
Of 76 cutaneously activated neurons recorded from the ventral posterior thalamus of awake, behaving [squirrel] monkeys, 9 were weakly excited by innocuous skin stimulation and responded maximally only when noxious mechanical cutaneous stimuli were delivered within small, contralateral receptive fields. Neurons capable of encoding the spatial and temporal features of noxious stimuli are located in the ventral posterior thalamus of the awake primate.
