Active metabolites of dipyrone induce a redox-dependent activation of the ion channels TRPA1 and TRPV1
Abstract. Introduction:. The nonopioid analgesic and antipyretic dipyrone (metamizol) is frequently used worldwide. Dipyrone is a prodrug, and the metabolites 4-N-methylaminoantipyrine (MAA) and 4-aminoantipyrine (AA) seem to induce analgesia and antipyresia in part by inhibiting cyclooxygenase. In...
