Modulation of Itch by Localized Skin Warming and Cooling

Modulation of Itch by Localized Skin Warming and Cooling

Skin thermal changes modulate itch sensitivity. However, the mechanisms of this modulation are still unclear. Using mouse models of acute and chronic itch, we investigated whether local innocuous thermal stimulation of the skin alters itch sensitivity and if blockade of thermosensitive transient rec...
