Molecule Discovery Could Revolutionize Chronic Pain Treatment

[ad_1] Summary: Researchers have identified a natural molecule, phosphatidic acid, that reduces the sensitivity of touch-sensing ion channels, providing a promising new avenue for managing chronic pain.By increasing levels of this molecule, cells become less sensitive to touch, which was confirmed through tests on sensory neurons and in mice. This discovery could lead to more targeted and effective treatments for conditions involving inflammatory pain.Key FactsPhosphatidic acid reduces sensitivity in touch-sensing ion channels.Increased phosphatidic acid levels lessen touch sensitivity in cells.Potential for new, more effective treatments for inflammatory pain.Source: Rutger UniversityRutgers researchers have found a new way to manage the receptors that control the sense of touch, which could lead to treating chronic pain more effectively.“Identifying a natural molecule that specifically reduces pain sensitivity offers hope for new therapeutic strategies in the management of pain,” said Tibor Rohacs, a professor in […]
