STRUCTURE, PROPERTIES AND PHYSIOLOGICAL ROLE OF TRPA1 RECEPTORS
Keyword(s):
In mammals, the ankyrin ionotropic transient receptor potential type 1 (TRPA1) is the only member of the TRPA receptor gene subfamily. It is defined as a target for damaging and inflammatory effects in peripheral sensory neurons, which implies its functional role in the development of pain and neurogenic inflammation. Experimental studies indicate that calcium permeable non-selective ion receptor channel TRPA1 is activated by a number of exogenous irritant compounds, factors including low temperatures. This review describes the structure, properties, and physiological role of TRPA1 receptors.
