Spider venom-derived peptide induces hyperalgesia in Na(v)1.7 knockout mice by activating Na(v)1.9 channels
The sodium channels Na(v)1.7, Na(v)1.8 and Na(v)1.9 are critical for pain perception in peripheral nociceptors. Loss of function of Na(v)1.7 leads to congenital insensitivity to pain in humans. Here we show that the spider peptide toxin called HpTx1, first identified as an inhibitor of K(v)4.2, rest...
