Redefining the concept of protease-activated receptors: cathepsin S evokes itch via activation of Mrgprs

Sensory neurons expressing Mas-related G protein coupled receptors (Mrgprs) mediate histamine-independent itch. We show that the cysteine protease cathepsin S activates MrgprC11 and evokes receptor-dependent scratching in mice. In contrast to its activation of conventional protease-activated recepto...
