TRPV1 and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

TRPV1 and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress: "Activation of TRPV1 can cause endoplasmic reticulum stress which follows a pathway that leads to Nrf2 and unfolded protein response. Diabetes can lead to the unfolded protein response. In addition, chronic diabetic neuropathy can lead to nerve degeneration. DRG from diabetic rats show increased oxidative stress and cell injury. TRPV1 may be an early characteristic of diabetic sensory"
