TRPA1 as an Analgesic Target
Humans have cultivated chili peppers for over 5,000 years. For more than 1,000 years extracts from these plants have been used medicinally in the treatment of various forms of pain. As a result, pain researchers have had a longstanding interest in the molecular identity of the receptor for capsaicin, the chemical that produces the sensation of heat from “hot” peppers. When the Julius lab publis...
متن کاملThe Rising Role of TRPA1 in Asthma
Asthma is an inflammatory condition of the airways triggered by exposure to allergens and/or irritants. TRPA1 is an irritant-sensing cation channel expressed in TRPV1-positive, capsaicin-sensitive chemosensory neurons that innervate various organs, including the airways. Various exogenous noxious chemicals have been described to activate TRPA1, including agents recognized to trigger and/or wors...
متن کاملTRPA1 gene polymorphisms and childhood asthma
BACKGROUND Animal data have suggested that the transient receptor potential ankyrin-1 (TRPA1) ion channel plays a key role in promoting airway inflammation in asthma and may mediate effects of paracetamol on asthma, yet confirmatory human data are lacking. To study associations of TRPA1 gene variants with childhood asthma and total IgE concentration, and interactions between TRPA1 and prenatal ...
متن کاملZING - YANG Kuo
If we accept mechanistic and non-Darwinian concepts of behavior as basic to behaviorism, we must consider both Jacques Loeb (Loeb, 1889, 1918) and John B. Watson as the pioneer behaviorists. The word "behaviorism" was coined by Watson (1913, 1914), and the movement was, at first, a method-ological revolt rather than an attempt to build a new system of psychology. At that time, psychology was st...
متن کاملZing a Network Model 01' the Cerebellum
This paper outlines a schema for movement control based on two stages of signal processing. The higher stage is a neural network model that treats the cerebellum as an array of adjustable motor pattern generators. This network uses sensory input to preset and to trigger elemental pattern generators and to evaluate their performance. The actual patterned outputs, however, are produced by intrins...
