Capsazepine is a synthetic analogue of the sensory neurone excitotoxin, capsaicin. The present study shows the capsazepine acts as a competitive antagonist of capsaicin. Capsaze...
Capsaicin is a pungent pain-producing compound found in plants of the capsicum family; it exerts excitatory, desensitizing, and toxic effects on a subset of sensory neurons, inc...
Capsaicin acts specifically on a subset of primary afferent sensory neurons to open cation-selective ion channels, probably by interacting directly with a membrane receptor-ion ...
The mechanism of activation of sensory neurons by the potent irritant resiniferatoxin (RTX) was compared with that of the pungent compound, capsaicin. RTX and capsaicin evoked a...
The data reviewed in this article suggest that protons should no longer be considered simply as an unwanted by-product of anaerobic respiration that results from either an accum...
