Role of TMEM100 in mechanically insensitive nociceptor un-silencing
Silent nociceptors remained enigmatic ever since they were first described decades ago. Here, Nees. et al. show that inflammation-induced upregulation of TMEM100 unsilences silent nociceptors, which triggers secondary mechanical pain hypersensitivity.
