TRP Channels as Therapeutic Targets: From Basic Science to Clinical Use is authored by experts across academia and industry, providing readers with a complete picture of the therapeutic potential and challenges associated with using TRP channels as drug targets.

This book offers a unique clinical approach by covering compounds that target TRP channels in pre-clinical and clinical phases, also offering a discussion of TRP channels as biomarkers.

An entire section is devoted to the novel and innovative uses of these channels across a variety of diseases, offering strategies that can be used to overcome the adverse effects of first generation TRPV1 antagonists.

Intended for all researchers and clinicians working toward the development of successful drugs targeting TRP channels, this book is an essential resource chocked full of the latest clinical data and findings.

Contains comprehensive coverage of TRP channels as therapeutic targets, from emerging clinical indications to completed clinical trials Discusses TRP channels as validated targets, ranging from obesity and diabetes through cancer and respiratory disorders, kidney diseases, hypertension, neurodegenerative disorders, and more Provides critical analysis of the complications and side effects that have surfaced during clinical trials, offering evidence-based suggestions for overcoming them

TRP Channels as Therapeutic Targets: From Basic Science to Clinical Use, Second Edition is a comprehensive reference on the roles of TRP Channels in health and disease states. Chapters are completely updated, withe new topics on TRP channels biology, the crystalline structure of TRP channels, targeting TRP channels for pain relief, the relationship with migraine, emerging pain targets, a comprehensive view of the role of TRP channels in respiratory diseases and COVID complications, anxiety relief, renal disease, arthritis, and therapeutic opportunities for thermal regulation. This is a great reference for broad segments of the scientific and medical community. Researchers working on TRP channel drug discovery will benefit from the overview of applications to conditions in specific organ systems. Clinicians interested in new drugs in the pipeline will also find this book helpful for biologic principles of action.

Presents the perspectives of several life science research specialties on the topicProvides a comprehensive picture of the TRP field, from TRP channel dysfunction through TRP drug discovery and development to clinical trials and everyday medical practiceRepresents an updated and complete reference

Capsaicin, the Pungent Principle in Hot Pepper: From Basic Pharmacology to Therapeutic Applications explores capsaicin's biological and pharmacological characteristics, from its discovery and isolation to its receptor identification and antagonists. The book's structure is divided into three sections, starting with the historical development of research on capsaicin. This foundational section provides a thorough understanding of the compound's journey from a simple pungent ingredient to a significant element in pharmacological studies. The second part of the book delves into capsaicin’s biological effects and pharmacology, covering areas such as nociception, pain, salivary secretion, body temperature regulation, and blood pressure regulation.Finally, the book examines the clinical applications of capsaicin, discussing potential future developments in desensitization, pain relief, injections, effects on the tumor microenvironment, appetite control, and longevity. This book is invaluable for pharmacology researchers and clinicians in pain management and cancer, offering insights into the unique characteristics and therapeutic potential of capsaicin.Provides historical background on capscaicin research, from the domestication all the way to the 2021 Nobel Prize winning researchExplores the scientific basis of longevity use of capsaicinCovers the state-of-art on the biology, pharmacology, and potential clinical applications of capsaicin

Chronic pain is a complex phenomenon, which continues to remain undertreated in the majority of affected patients thus representing a significant unmet medical need, but the development of cellular, subcellular, and molecular methods of approaching this epidemic of pain shows great promise. In Analgesia: Methods and Protocols, experts in the field present thorough coverage of molecular analgesia research methods from target discovery through target validation and clinical testing to tolerance and dependence, with extensive chapters on emerging receptor classes as targets for analgesic drugs and innovative analgesic strategies. As a volume in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series, the chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes sections with tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Comprehensive and essential, Analgesia: Methods and Protocols promises to aid and enrich the research of all those scientists and clinicians who are interested in what the increasingly molecular future has in store for analgesia research, from the molecular research bench through the animal laboratory to the bedside.

Recent findings have implied a distinct therapeutic potential for drugs targeting Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels in a wide variety of diseases, many with no existing satisfactory treatment options. Thus, the TRP superfamily of ion channels has attracted a great deal of well-deserved attention.  TRP Channels in Drug Discovery provides a thorough collection of the most up-to-date reviews and protocols on the subject, coming from top experts in the field.  Volume II presents practical methodologies involving models for disorders of the cardiovascular system, the brain, skin, the metabolic system, as well as colitis, cancer, thermosensation, and musculoskeletal disorders.  Written for the Methods in Pharmacology and Toxicology™ series, this work includes the kind of detailed description and key implementation advice that ensures successful results in the lab. Comprehensive and cutting-edge, TRP Channels in Drug Discovery serves as an ideal reference for graduate students in academic laboratories as well as for pharmaceutical scientists developing new drugs and clinicians interested in novel drugs in the pipeline.
