Differential expression of subunits in DRG neurons
Background: Auxiliary subunits regulate the voltage-gated sodium channels of DRG neurons. Results: subunits are differentially expressed in subpopulations of DRG neurons and regulate Nav1.7 channels in an isoform-specific manor. Conclusions: Differential subunit expression and isoform-specific regulation has important implications for the sodium currents of DRG neurons. Significance: su...
متن کاملThe transcription factor Smad-interacting protein 1 controls pain sensitivity via modulation of DRG neuron excitability.
The perception of pain is initiated by the transduction of noxious stimuli through specialized ion channels and receptors expressed by primary nociceptive neurons. The molecular mechanisms that orchestrate the expression and function of ion channels relevant for pain processing are poorly understood. We demonstrate here a central role of the transcription factor Smad-interacting protein 1 (Sip1...
متن کاملVGLUTs and Glutamate Synthesis-Focus on DRG Neurons and Pain.
The amino acid glutamate is the principal excitatory transmitter in the nervous system, including in sensory neurons that convey pain sensation from the periphery to the brain. It is now well established that a family of membrane proteins, termed vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs), serve a critical function in these neurons: they incorporate glutamate into synaptic vesicles. VGLUTs have ...
متن کاملUpregulation of Ih expressed in IB4-negative Aδ nociceptive DRG neurons contributes to mechanical hypersensitivity associated with cervical radiculopathic pain
Cervical radiculopathy represents aberrant mechanical hypersensitivity. Primary sensory neuron's ability to sense mechanical force forms mechanotransduction. However, whether this property undergoes activity-dependent plastic changes and underlies mechanical hypersensitivity associated with cervical radiculopathic pain (CRP) is not clear. Here we show a new CRP model producing stable mechanical...
متن کاملComparative functional expression of nAChR subtypes in rodent DRG neurons
We investigated the functional expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in heterogeneous populations of dissociated rat and mouse lumbar dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons by calcium imaging. By this experimental approach, it is possible to investigate the functional expression of multiple receptor and ion-channel subtypes across more than 100 neuronal and glial cells simultaneo...
