“…TRPA1 channels are activated by a host of endogenous mediators and substances including allyl isothiocyanate (the spicy substance in wasabi and horseradish), acrolein, cinnamaldehyde, formalin, iodoacetamide, methanethiosulphonate, mustard oil, and pentenal [14, 15, 37, 38]. In addition, activation of TRPA1 channels by chemotherapeutic agents such as bortezomib (a proteasome inhibitor) and oxaliplatin (a platinum-containing alkylating agent) has been shown to contribute to pain induction and allodynia in cancer patients [38, 39].…”
