Figure 6

Acute mechanosensory phenotype in TRPA1-deficient mice. Frequency of paw withdrawal to fixed forces applied to the hindpaw is measured. 13 WT and 11 TRPA1-deficient male mice were tested. Briefly, hindpaws were exposed to the force actuator starting with the greatest force. Each force was applied eight times at ~1/s. The actual g-force values used differ between this study and Kwan et al. (2006) probably due to the use of different instrumentation [16].
