Abstract
Topical application of capsaicin to human skin produced an initial burning erythematous reaction which diminished over 24 hr leaving the skin unresponsive to histamine-induced axon reflex vasodilatation without altering sensitivity to pain, touch and temperature. Depletion of substance P from local sensory nerve terminals is suggested as a possible explanation for this capsaicin effect.Entities:
