详细描述
With this experiment, the experimenter wish evaluate the role of TRPA1 on non-histaminergic itch induced by BAM8-22 2 (Bovine Adrenal Medulla), which is found naturally in the human body and which has proved to evoke itch. To evaluate the role of TRPA1 it will be used a TRPA1 agonist

结局指标
主要结局
Cold Pain threshold
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the tests for thermal sensation will all be performed using a PATHWAY ATS (Medoc Ltd, Israel) thermal sensory testing device
hyperknesis
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
measured by using a mildy pruritic, non-painful von Frey filaments of a predetermined intensity (5-30 milliNewton of force). participants will rate the itch sensation induced by stimuli with von Frey filaments on an numerical rating scale from 0 to 10
mechanical pain threshold
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
is performed using a pin-prick set (Aalborg University). The set consists of 8 needles each having a diameter of 0,6 mm and different force applications. it will be determinate a threshold corresponding to the force of the pinprick (mN) from which participants start to feel pain
superficial blood perfusion
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
is measured by a speckle contrast imager (FLPI, Moor Instruments, England)
Cold Detection Threshold
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the tests for thermal sensation will all be performed using a PATHWAY ATS (Medoc Ltd, Israel) thermal sensory testing device
mechanical pain sensitivity
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
is performed using a pin-prick set (Aalborg University). The set consists of 8 needles each having a diameter of 0,6 mm and different force applications
Warm Detection Threshold
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the tests for thermal sensation will all be performed using a PATHWAY ATS (Medoc Ltd, Israel) thermal sensory testing device
Heat Pain threshold
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the tests for thermal sensation will all be performed using a PATHWAY ATS (Medoc Ltd, Israel) thermal sensory testing device
Pain supra-threshold heat Stimuli
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the tests for thermal sensation will all be performed using a PATHWAY ATS (Medoc Ltd, Israel) thermal sensory testing device
itch rating
时间窗: change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application
the subject will rate the itch for 10 minutes by using a visual analog scale (VAS) on a tablet. this scale goes from 0 to 100. 0 indicates "no itch" and 100 indicates "worst imaginable itch"
次要结局
- pain rating(change from baseline, up to 10 minutes after the application)
