Potassium Channels in Peripheral Pain Pathways: Expression, Function and Therapeutic Potential
Electrical excitation of peripheral somatosensory nerves is a first step in generation of most pain signals in mammalian nervous system. Such excitation is controlled by an intricate set of ion channels that are coordinated to produce a degree of excitation that is proportional to the strength of th...
