Characterization of functional TRPV1 channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of mouse skeletal muscle.

TRPV1 represents a non-selective cation channel activated by capsaicin, acidosis and high temperature. In the central nervous system where TRPV1 is highly expressed, its physiological role in nociception is clearly identified. In skeletal muscle, TRPV1 appears implicated in energy metabolism and exe...
