The rate of action potential firing in nociceptors is a major determinant of the intensity of
pain. Possible modulators of action potential firing include the HCN ion channels, which …

Classical microtubule‐associated proteins (MAPs) were originally identified based on their
co‐purification with microtubules assembled from mammalian brain lysate. They have since …
