Co-expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) mRNA in CGRP-IR/VR1 IR neurons

nAChR mRNA nAChR + CGRP-IR neurons/total CGRP-IR neurons* (%) nAChR + VR1 IR neurons/total VR1 IR neurons (%)
α3 nAChR 109/1276 (8.61 ± 0.66) 122/1428 (8.33 ±1.99)
α4 nAChR 101/1363 (7.43 ± 1.76) 71/1257 (5.68 ±1.40)
α6 nAChR 158/1372 (12.06 ±2.95) 271/1460 (18.56 ±6.69)

Data for CGRP-IR neurons coexpressing nAChR mRNA represent counts of three entire sections (one from each of three animals).

Data for VR1-IR neurons coexpressing nAChR mRNA, represent counts of three entire sections (one from each of three animals).

Data are expressed as mean ±SD.
