Tetrodotoxin induced changes in the chemical coding of dorsal root ganglion neurons supplying the porcine urinary bladder

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) mode of action is based on a blocking of fast sodium channels in nerve cell membrane what, in turn, abolishes the propagation of the action potential along the nerve fibers. TTX is currently used in experimental therapies focused on neoplastic or neurogenic pain, however, as for n...
