| 1 | These neurons carry receptors that bind capsaicin, recently identified as the vanilloid VR1 receptor. | Capsaicin | transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | The discovery of VR1-expressing cells in the brain as well as in non-neural tissues such as the kidney and urothelium places VR1 in a much broader perspective than peripheral pain perception, and is hoped to identify further, yet unsuspected, indications for vanilloid therapy. | Capsaicin | transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | The realisation that VR1 and cannabinoid CB1 receptors have overlapping ligand recognition properties may also have far-reaching implications for vanilloid therapy. | Capsaicin | transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 | Homo sapiens |
