Abstract excerpt
How desensitization of mechanotransducer currents regulates afferent signal generation in mammalian sensory neurons is essentially unknown. Here, we dissected desensitization mechanisms of mechanotransducer channels in rat sensory neurons that mediate the sense of touch and pain. We identified fo...
