Research Abstract |
TRPA1 was predominantly expressed with sensory neuropeptides in dorsal root ganglion(DRG) and nodose ganglion(NG) neurons, and in nerve fibers in the rat stomach. Intrathecal injection of TRPA1 antisense attenuated the visceromotor response, and suppressed ERK1/2 activation in the DRG, but not NG, neurons produced by gastric distention(GD). Furthermore, intrathecal and intraperitoneal injections of the TRPA1 inhibitor HC-03003 suppressed the response to noxious GD. The activation of TRPA1 in DRG neurons by noxious GD may be involved in acute visceral pain.
