TL;DR: Evidence is provided that nitric oxide (NO) potentiates the activity of acid-sensitive ASICs, suggesting that ASICs may play an important role in the pain associated with metabolic stress and inflammation, where both tissue acidosis and a high level of NO are present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultraviolet‐B induced inflammation of human skin: Characterisation and comparison with traditional models of hyperlagesia
TL;DR: It is suggested that UVB inflammation, at least using moderate doses produces sensory changes primarily by sensitising peripheral pain processing in the relative absence of alterations in central pain processing.
