The Role of Kv7/M Potassium Channels in Controlling Ectopic Firing in Nociceptors
Peripheral nociceptive neurons encode and convey injury-inducing stimuli toward the central nervous system. In normal conditions, tight control of nociceptive resting potential prevents their spontaneous activation. However, in many pathological conditions the control of membrane potential is disrup...
