Description:
Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin–8 (TRPM8), a recently identified member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of ion channels, is activated by mild cooling and by chemical compounds such as the supercooling agent, icilin. Since cooling, possibly involving TRPM8 stimulation, diminishes injury-induced peripheral inflammation, we hypothesized that TRPM8 activation may...
