Selective disruption of high sensitivity heat activation but not capsaicin activation of TRPV1 channels by pore turret mutations [PDF]
The capsaicin receptor transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV)1 is a highly heat-sensitive ion channel. Although chemical activation and heat activation of TRPV1 elicit similar pungent, painful sensation, the molecular mechanism underlying ...

Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

Multicenter assessment of quantitative sensory testing (QST) for the detection of neuropathic-like pain responses using the topical capsaicin model [PDF]
Background: The use of quantitative sensory testing (QST) in multicenter studies has been quite limited, due in part to lack of standardized procedures among centers. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the application of the capsaicin pain model

Response to High-Dose Topical Capsaicin in Neuropathic Pain: Absence of Deep Pain as a Predictor of Analgesic Effect. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Topical high‐dose capsaicin treatment is a recommended therapy for localised neuropathic pain with good tolerability and no identified drug interactions. However, it is not effective for every patient. So far, few parameters in patient history have been identified as predictors for response to capsaicin treatment.

Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Capsaicin and Its Analogues in Pain and Other Diseases
Capsaicin is the most predominant and naturally occurring alkamide found in Capsicum fruits. Since its discovery in the 19th century, the therapeutic roles of capsaicin have been well characterized. The potential applications of capsaicin range from food
