    Study Notes

    TRPV1 Antagonists and Pain Management

    • TRPV1 antagonists block TRPV1 activity, reducing pain perception
    • Effective in reducing nociception in inflammatory and neuropathic pain models in rats
    • TRPV1 antagonists have efficacy in reducing pain in animal models

    Side-Effects and Limitations

    • Major side-effect of TRPV1 antagonists in humans is hyperthermia
    • Hyperthermia restricts the usefulness of these drugs

    Potential Targets

    • TRPV1 is upregulated in patients with painful bladder syndrome
    • TRPV1 may be a potential target for prostate cancer treatment
