Hypotonicity modulates tetrodotoxin-sensitive sodium current in trigeminal ganglion neurons

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) play an important role in the control of membrane excitability. We previously reported that the excitability of nociceptor was increased by hypotonic stimulation. The present study tested the effect of hypotonicity on tetrodo...
