Assessing the Effects of the Topical Application of L-Menthol on Pain-Related Somatosensory-Evoked Potentials Using Intra-Epidermal Stimulation

L-menthol is known to activate transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) and induce analgesia to thermal stimuli. However, since thermal stimulation leads to the interaction among the other TRP channels, it was unclear whether L-menthol causes analgesia to stimuli other than thermal stimuli....
