Acutely isolated DRG neurons

Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) is the oval-shaped nodular expansion structure near the intervertebral foramen in the spinal nerve posterior root just before entering the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. It contains a cluster of sensory nerve cell bodies which are the integration and relay centers along the sensory pathway for pain, temperature (cold and hot), touch, pressure, etc.  Pharmacore Labs provide manual patch clamp assays on acutely isolated rat or mouse DRG neurons for ion channel-related research and drug discovery service, for example, pain-related ion channels Nav1.7, Nav1.8, TRPV, P2X, and so on.
