TRPA1 mediates aromatase inhibitor-evoked pain by the aromatase substrate androstenedione (2016)
Journal Article
Morice, A. H., Sadofsky, L. R., Benemei, S., Coppi, E., De Logu, F., Di Tommaso, M., …Tonello, R. (2016). TRPA1 mediates aromatase inhibitor-evoked pain by the aromatase substrate androstenedione. Cancer Research, 76(23), 7024-7035. https://doi.org/10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-16-1492

Aromatase inhibitors (AI) induce painful musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS), which are dependent upon the pain transducing receptor TRPA1. However, as the AI concentrations required to engage TRPA1 in mice are higher than those found in the plasma of p...
