TRPV1 drugs alter core body temperature via central projections of primary afferent sensory neurons

W. W. S. Yue, L. Yuan, J. M. Braz, A. I. Basbaum, D. Julius

This study identifies that TRPV1 drugs alter core body temperature through central projections of sensory neurons, not peripheral vascular effects.
