Activation of TRESK channels by the inflammatory mediator lysophosphatidic acid balances nociceptive signalling

In dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons TRESK channels constitute a major current component of the standing outward current IKSO. A prominent physiological role of TRESK has been attributed to pain sensation. During inflammation mediators of pain e.g. lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) are released and modula...
