Analysis of Drosophila TRPA1 reveals an ancient origin for human chemical nociception.

Nature - 25 Mar 2010

Kang Kyeongjin, Pulver Stefan R, Panzano Vincent C, Chang Elaine C, Griffith Leslie C, Theobald Douglas L, Garrity Paul A

Abstract excerpt

Chemical nociception, the detection of tissue-damaging chemicals, is important for animal survival and causes human pain and inflammation, but its evolutionary origins are largely unknown. Reactive electrophiles are a class of noxious compounds humans find pungent and irritating, such as allyl is...
