1 The VR1 receptor is activated not only by capsaicin but also by noxious heat and protons, and therefore it is suggested as a molecular integrator of chemical and physical stimuli that elicit pain. Capsaicin transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 Homo sapiens
2 Around 10% of the VR1 receptor-ir is expressed on neurons that contain CGRP-ir (ten among 74) in the human TG, indicating that capsaicin may act through the VR1 receptor to modulate the release of CGRP and in turn to modulate pain. Capsaicin transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 Homo sapiens
