Menthol preferentially inhibits persistent Na+ current mediated by NaV1.8 in small-sized dural afferent neurons of rats
The results of this study suggest that menthol exerts an analgesic effect by preferentially inhibiting persistent TTX-R I Na and modulating the inactivation and recovery kinetics of TTX-R Na + channels.
