BK Potassium Channels Suppress Cavα2δ Subunit Function to Reduce Inflammatory and Neuropathic Pain
Summary: Cavα2δ subunits contribute to the cell-surface expression of Cav2 calcium channels. Upregulation of Cavα2δ-1 in dorsal root ganglion neurons occurs after nerve injury and results in an increased synaptic abundance of Cav2.2 channels in the spinal dorsal horn, thus enhancing the transmission...
