Publication Link Summary of findings
18060017 highlights of recent developments and discussion of the critical role of Na(v)1.7 in pain sensation in humans [review]
17950472 The contribution of Na(v)1.7 to acquired and inherited pain states and the absence of motor, cognitive and cardiac deficits in patients lacking this channel make it an attractive target for the treatment of neuropathic pain.
18070139 review: a series of SCN9A mutations resulting in gain-of-function phenotypes presenting with the phenotype of enhanced pain sensitivity.
18070140 review: Congenital Indifference to Pain patients assessed are homozygous or compound heterozygous for nonsense mutations at various locations throughout SCN9A, resulting in an early stop codon
17985268 This study describe a boy with erythermalgia whose painful attacks began in infancy. We found a novel mutation of SCN9A.
18036246 VGSC activity has a significant intermediary role in potentiating effect of EGF in human prostate cancer
17928139 In rectal hypersensitivity, Na(v)1.7 immunoreactive nerve fibres were significantly increased in mucosal, sub-mucosal, and muscle layers
17597096 A stop codon mutation in SCN9A causes lack of pain sensation.
17404832 results suggest that the enhancement of TTX-sensitive sodium current density in differentiated NG108-15 cells is mainly due to the increase in the expression of the TTX-sensitive voltage-gated Na+ channel, NaV1.7
17430993 Mutations in SCN9A may mediate variabiilty in lidocaine sensitivity in erythromelalgia patients.
