Transient receptor potential melastatin-7 (TRPM7) is a selective cation permeable channel which plays important roles in cellular and developmental biology such as cell proliferation, survival, differentiation and migration. This channel is also known to be necessary for transmitter release in the peripheral nervous system. In this study, immunohistochemistry for TRPM7 was conducted in the rat lumbar dorsal root ganglion (DRG).
