Abstract
Sodium channel NaV1.7 is a major target in pain research, largely because of genetic validation. In this issue of Neuron, McDermott et al. (2019) now present a comprehensive assessment of congenital pain insensitivity due to NaV1.7 loss of function. This work and studies on NaV1.7 gain of function raise important questions about how channelopathies produce disease.Entities:
