Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The NTRK1 gene plays an important role in sensory and sympathetic neuronal survival. Mutations in this gene cause a rare hereditary disease known as congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis. The aim of this study was to explore possible associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in NTRK1 and pain perception in a selected population. METHODS: A total of 309 healthy Han Chinese...
