TRP Channels and Pain

TL;DR: Analysis of TRP channel function and expression has validated the existence of nociceptors as a specialized group of somatosensory neurons devoted to the detection of noxious stimuli and is providing insight into the coding logic of nnociception and how specification of nOCiceptor subtypes underlies behavioral discrimination ofNoxious thermal, chemical, and mechanical stimuli.

The molecular basis of individual differences in phenylthiocarbamide and propylthiouracil bitterness perception.

TL;DR: Individual psychogenomic pathways for bitter taste are mapped by testing people with a variety of psychophysical tasks and linking their individual perceptions of the compounds PTC and propylthiouracil to the in vitro responses of their TAS2R38 receptor variants.
