miscelleaneouspain 
would be an appealing target for the development of specific drugs to relieve pain
neuromuscularspinal muscular atrophy 
activation could therefore serve as a target for modulating axonal regeneration in motoneuron diseases such as SMA in which presynaptic activity of VGCCs is reduced
ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • in Nav1.9-null mice, although the Nav1.9 channel does not contribute to basal pain thresholds, it plays an important role in heat pain hypersensitivity induced by subacute paw inflammation
