Metabotropic glutamate receptors in the lateral superior olive activate TRP-like channels: age- and experience-dependent regulation.

abstract：:Itch is often triggered by warming the skin in patients with itchy dermatitis, but the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. We presently investigated if warming the skin enhances histamine- or serotonin (5-HT)-evoked itch behavior or responses of sensory dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells, and if responses of superf...
