NaV1.8 channels are expressed in large, as well as small, diameter sensory afferent neurons
Sensory neurons in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) express a subset of voltage dependent sodium channels (NaV) including NaV1.1, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9. Previous work supported preferential localization of NaV1.8 channels to small-medium diameter, nociceptive afferent neurons. However, we recently published evidence that NaV1.8 was the dominant NaV channel expressed in the somas of small, medium a...
متن کاملPAT4 is abundantly expressed in excitatory and inhibitory neurons as well as epithelial cells
PAT4, the fourth member of the SLC36/proton dependent amino acid transporter (PAT) family, is a high-affinity, low capacity electroneutral transporter of neutral amino acids like proline and tryptophan. It has also been associated with the function of mTORC1, a complex in the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. We performed in situ hybridization and immunohistological analysis to dete...
متن کاملTwo receptor tyrosine phosphatases of the LAR family are expressed in the developing leech by specific central neurons as well as select peripheral neurons, muscles, and other cells.
Receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (rPTPs) are thought to play a crucial role in neuronal development, particularly in pathfinding by growing processes. We have cloned and sequenced two Hirudo medicinalis rPTPs that are homologous to the Drosophila and vertebrate rPTPs of the Leukocyte common antigen-related (LAR) subfamily. These Hirudo rPTPs, HmLAR1 and HmLAR2, are products of different, ...
متن کاملGi-DREADD Expression in Peripheral Nerves Produces Ligand-Dependent Analgesia, as well as Ligand-Independent Functional Changes in Sensory Neurons.
Designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) are an advanced experimental tool that could potentially provide a novel approach to pain management. In particular, expression of an inhibitory (Gi-coupled) DREADD in nociceptors might enable ligand-dependent analgesia. To test this possibility, TRPV1-cre mice were used to restrict expression of Gi-DREADDs to predominantly C-...
متن کاملSmall Neurons in Sensory Ganglia
Ganglion terminale (GT) in its essence displays gathering of pseudounipolar neurons, situated in impressio ganglion trigeminale of the pyramid. Peripheral tentacles of pseudounipolar cells take place in formation of first, second and third reception parts of the third branch of V cerebral nerve and central ones form receptive root entering into middle cerebellar peduncle.
