A vanilloid receptor (VR1) has recently been cloned and shown to be a target for capsaicin,
the excitotoxic component of capsicum peppers (Caterina, MJ, Schumacher, MA, Tominaga …

The irritant action of capsaicin is mediated by the vanilloid receptor, VR1, which is
expressed in sensory neurons termed nociceptors. Capsaicin also desensitizes nociceptors …

Capsaicin receptors are expressed in primary sensory neurons and excited by heat and
protons. We examined the inflammation‐induced changes of the level of VR1 capsaicin …

The cloned capsaicin receptor, also known as vanilloid receptor subtype 1 (VR1) receptor,
has been demonstrated to be an integral membrane protein with homology to a family of …

The vanilloid receptor protein (VR1) is a well‐characterised integrator of noxious stimuli in
peripheral sensory neurones. There is evidence for the presence of VR1 in the central …

The vanilloid (capsaicin) receptor, VR1, is expressed in dorsal root ganglion and mediates
the sensory response to vanilloids and other noxious stimuli. There is evidence for VR1 …

Recently a cDNA clone, vanilloid receptor subtype-1 (VR1), was isolated and found to
encode an ion channel that is activated by both capsaicin, the pain producing compound in …

The expression of capsaicin (VR1) receptor by A-fiber primary afferent neurons has been
investigated by double immunohistochemical staining with VR1 and 200 kD neurofilament …

抄録 Capsaicin, the main pungent ingredient in 'hot'chili peppers, elicits burning pain by
activating specific (vanilloid) receptors on sensory nerve endings. The cloned capsaicin …

Capsaicin, the pungent ingredient in hot pepper, activates and subsequently desensitizes a
subset of polymodal nociceptors. Because its initial application to skin produces pain …
