Cholecystokinin type B receptor-mediated inhibition of A-type K+ channels enhances sensory neuronal excitability through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and c-Src-dependent JNK pathway

Abstract Background Cholecystokinin (CCK) is implicated in the regulation of nociceptive sensitivity of primary afferent neurons. Nevertheless, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Methods Using patch clamp recording, western blot analysis, immunofluorescent labelling, en...
