Abstract:Small dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons are primary nociceptors which are responsible for sensing pain. Elucidation of their dynamics is essential for understanding and controlling pain. To this end, we present a numerical bifurcation analysis of a small DRG neuron model in this paper. The model is of Hodgkin-Huxley type and has 9 state variables. It consists of a Na v 1.7 and a Na v 1.8 sodium channel, a leak channel, a delayed rectifier potassium and an A-type transient potassium channel. The dynamics of th… Show more
