Functional expression and pharmacological modulation of TRPM3 in human sensory neurons.
Authors
Abstract
The transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channel TRPM3 functions as a noxious heat sensor and plays a key role in acute pain sensation and inflammatory hyperalgesia in rodents. Despite its potential as novel analgesic drug target, little is known about the expression, function and modulation of TRPM3 in the human somatosensory system.
