The function of NaV1.8 clusters in lipid rafts

NaV1.8 is a voltage gated sodium channel mainly expressed on the membrane of thin diameter c-fibre neurons involved in the transmission of pain signals. In these neurons NaV1.8 is essential for the propagation of action potentials. NaV1.8 is located in lipid rafts along the axons of sensory neurons...
