Since the first TRP ion channel was discovered in Drosophila melanogaster in 1989, the progress made in this area of signaling research has yielded findings that offer the potential to dramatically impact human health and wellness. Involved in gateway activity for all five of our senses, TRP channels have been shown to respond to a wide range of st

This volume represents edited material that was presented at a conference on brainstem modulation of spinal nociception held in Beaune, France during July, 1987. Pain Modulation, Volume 77 in the series Progress in Brain Research reviews, analyses and suggests new research strategies on several relevant topics including: the endogenous opioid peptides; sites of action of opiates; the role of biogenic animes and non-opioid peptides in analgesia; dorsal horn circuitry; behavioural factors in the activation of pain modulating networks and clinical studies of nociceptive modulation.

In order to survive, an organism must be able to sense its surroundings. One particularly important sense is the processes of nociception, the ability to detect noxious stimuli. In Drosophila, when a noxious stimulus is sensed, larvae will perform a distinct rolling behavior. It is valuable to investigate the molecular mechanisms that give rise to the Drosophila larva's ability to sense noxious stimuli and to produce nociceptive rolling behavior as this will allow for a greater understanding of the nociceptive neural circuit and further insight into sensory perception. With the strong homology between Drosophila genes and human genes, these studies could find new targets for pain management. The initial focus of this dissertation was the gene defective proboscis extension response 11 (dpr11). dpr11 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of proteins and it is part of a recently discovered protein network, the Dprome. It was my hypothesis that Dpr11 acts at synapses of nociceptor neurons to direct the formation of connections to downstream secondary neurons. While dpr11 was not found necessary for nociceptive behavior in Drosophila, gene expression studies supported the hypothesis that dpr11 and its binding partners DIP-gamma and DIP-beta are expressed in the nociception circuit. Importantly, dpr11-RNAi tests confirmed an off-target effect on another gene paralytic. Paralytic codes for the only voltage-gated sodium channel in Drosophila, and it is highly processed with many alternative transcripts. This study presents evidence that there are novel isoforms of para that may have a role in thermal nociception. This is a unique finding that relates to pain mechanisms in vertebrates as para is homologous to human voltage-gated sodium channels that are implicated in pain processing. This dissertation will also touch on TRP channels involved in sensory processing, including a mechanotransduction channel nompC and dTRPA1, the Drosophila homolog of human TRPA1. Data present a model for a novel role for nompC in the glia of the Drosophila larval brain, and information on the regulation of dTRPA1 in Drosophila nociceptive neurons. In summary, this dissertation broadly investigates the genetics behind neural circuit formation and sensory transduction processes, lending insight into how genes contribute to behavior and adding important information to the field of pain processing.

The Special Issue “Ion Channels of Nociception” contains 13 articles united by a focus on the peripheral mechanisms of pain. The content covers the mechanisms of neuropathic, inflammatory, and dental pain as well as pain in migraine and diabetes; nociceptive roles of P2X3, ASIC, Piezo and TRP channels; pain control through GPCRs and pharmacological agents; and nonpharmacological treatment with electroacupuncture.
