Abstract excerpt
We have recently found that, following complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced inflammation, cutaneous polymodal nociceptors (CPM) lacking the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) are sensitized to heat stimuli. In order to determine possible mechanisms playing a role in this change, we examined gene expression in the L2/L3 sensory ganglia following CFA injection into the hairy hind paw skin and...
