Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings of vTT-expressed Trpv1 activation by capsaicin. (a) vHG-infected 7b cells do not respond to capsaicin stimulation. (b) vTT-infected 7b cells show a large biphasic inward current (8 nA) that desensitizes after stimulation with 0.5 μM capsaicin. Addition of ruthenium red (RuR; 5 μM) completely blocked the capsaicin current.
