The Drosophila Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channel Negatively Regulates Nociception
Summary: Inhibition of nociceptor activity is important for the prevention of spontaneous pain and hyperalgesia. To identify the critical K+ channels that regulate nociceptor excitability, we performed a forward genetic screen using a Drosophila larval nociception paradigm. Knockdown of three K+ cha...
