Background Information
TRPM8, also known as CMR1 (cold-menthol receptor-1), is a nonselective cation channel activated by cold and the cooling substances menthol and icilin (PMID: 11893340; 11882888). It serves as a neuronal sensor of cold temperatures. Functioning TRPM8 channels are required for behavioral responses to innocuous cool, noxious cold, injury-evoked cold hypersensitivity, and cooling-mediated analgesia (PMID: 17538622; 21438154; 16920620; 21984952). Additionally, TRPM8 has also been reported to be involved in thermoregulation and the regulation of basal tear flow (PMID: 21407809; 21076394). TRPM8 is expressed extensively in sensory nerves, human prostate and overexpressed in a variety of cancers including prostate, breast, lung, colon and skin melanomas (PMID: 11325849; 20816009).
