Attenuation of intracellular Ca2+ increase to capsaicin stimulation in neurons isolated from TRPV1 G564S+/+ mice. (a) Basal intracellular Ca2+ concentrations (as F340/F380) in DRG neurons dissociated from TRPV1 G564S+/+ mice and wild-type littermates (n = 9–11 neurons, ***p < 0.001 compared with corresponding control group, unpaired Student’s t test). (b, c) Intracellular Ca2+ responses to 1 μM (b) or 5 μM (c) capsaicin in DRG neurons dissociated from TRPV1 G564S+/+ mice and wild-type littermates. Note the faster and more dramatic increase of Ca2+ signals in wild-type neurons. In (b) and (c), Fura-2 ratio was normalized to t0 in each group, n = 7–11 neurons, ***p < 0.001 compared with corresponding control groups, two-way ANOVA, followed by Bonferroni post hoc tests. TRPV: transient receptor potential vanilloid; WT: wild type.
