4α‐phorbol 12,13‐didecanoate activates cultured mouse dorsal root ganglia neurons independently of <scp>TRPV4</scp>

TRPV4 contributes to mechanosensation in vivo, but there is little evidence for functional TRPV4 in cultured DRG and TG neurons. We conclude that 4αPDD activates these neurons independently of TRPV4, so it is not appropriate to refer to 4αPDD as a selective TRPV4 agonist.
