Figure 1. The majority of the nodose and jugular esophageal nociceptors express TRPA1.

Figure 1

Examples of the single cell RT-PCR on the TRPV1-positive (nociceptive) nodose and jugular neurons retrogradely labeled from the esophagus. Individual neurons are numbered. TRPA1 was expressed in ≈95% (16/17) of the nodose and ≈75% (20/27) of the jugular TRPV1-positive neurons (NS, χ2-test). +, whole nodose ganglion cDNA (positive control), B, sample of superfusing bath solution containing no cell (negative control).
