Anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), an important part of the limbic system, has extensive connections with other cortical areas and subcortical nuclei and is involved in modulating many functions. In recent years, an increasing body of evidence in eletrophysiology, functional imaging and behavioral study indicates that ACC is closely involved in processing of pain, especially in the affective dimension of pain. This review will focus on the progress in the study of ACC in processing of pain.
前扣带回皮质（ACC）是边缘系统的重要组成部分，与其他皮质区域和皮质下核团有着广泛的联系，并参与调节多种功能。近年来，越来越多的电生理学、功能成像和行为学研究证据表明，ACC密切参与疼痛处理，尤其是在疼痛的情感维度方面。本综述将聚焦于ACC在疼痛处理研究方面的进展。
