Contribution of TRPA1 as a Downstream Signal of Proteinase-Activated Receptor-2 to Pancreatic Pain

We examined if TRPA1, like TRPV1, contributes to pancreatic nociceptor excitation following proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) stimulation and to pancreatitis-related pain in mice. A PAR2-activating peptide, infused into the pancreatic duct, caused spinal Fos expression, which was prevented by A...
