Pharmacological blockade of TRPA1 inhibits mechanical firing in nociceptors
BACKGROUND: TRPA1 has been implicated in both chemo- and mechanosensation. Recent work demonstrates that inhibiting TRPA1 function reduces mechanical hypersensitivity produced by inflammation. Furthermore, a broad range of chemical irritants require functional TRPA1 to exert their effects. In this s...
