Direct Activation of Capsaicin Receptors by Products of Lipoxygenases: Endogenous Capsaicin-Like Substances
Capsaicin, a pungent ingredient of hot peppers, causes excitation of small sensory neurons, and thereby produces severe pain. A nonselective cation channel activated by capsaicin has been identified in sensory neurons and a cDNA encoding the channel has been cloned recently. However, an endogenous a...
