TRPM3 mediates spontaneous pain and mechanical allodynia in a mouse model of chronic orofacial neuropathy
Cell reports. Medicine ·doi:10.1016/j.xcrm.2026.102645

Trigeminal nerve injury can lead to chronic and difficult-to-treat orofacial neuropathic pain. Here, we uncover a key role for the cation channel TRPM3 in the chronic constriction injury of the infraorbital nerve (IoN-CCI) mouse model of tr…

Protease secretions by the invading blastocyst induce calcium oscillations in endometrial epithelial cells via the protease-activated receptor 2
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/s12958-023-01085-7

BACKGROUND: Early embryo implantation is a complex phenomenon characterized by the presence of an implantation-competent blastocyst and a receptive endometrium. Embryo development and endometrial receptivity must be synchronized and an adeq…

Upregulation of TRPM3 in nociceptors innervating inflamed tissue.
eLife ·doi:10.7554/elife.61103

Genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of the heat-activated cation channel TRPM3 alleviates inflammatory heat hyperalgesia, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. We induced unilateral inflammation of the hind paw in mice, and …
