Research Abstract |
We investigated the effects of analgesics on voltage-gated sodium channels electrophysiologically using Xenopus oocyte expression system to contribute the development of new analgesics for intractable pain. We demonstrated that some neurosteroids and endocannabinoid having analgesic action inhibited some Navα subunits functions, suggesting that this effect is one of the action mechanisms of these analgesics.
