The Nav1.9 Channel Is a Key Determinant of Cold Pain Sensation and Cold Allodynia
Cold-triggered pain is essential to avoid prolonged exposure to harmfully low temperatures. However, the molecular basis of noxious cold sensing in mammals is still not completely understood. Here, we show that the voltage-gated Nav1.9 sodium channel is important for the perception of pain in respon...
