Transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) channels play a role in several inflammatory and nociceptive processes. Previous work showed that magnetic electrical field-induced antinociceptive [corrected] action is mediated by activation of capsaicin-sensitive sensory afferents. In this study, a modified Hodgkin-Huxley model, in which TRP-like current (ITRP) was incorporated, was implemented to predict the firing behavior of action potentials (APs), as the model neuron was exposed to sinusoidal changes in externally-applied voltage. When model neuron is exposed to low-frequency sinusoidal voltage, increased maximal conductance of ITRP can enhance repetitive bursts of APs accompanied by a shortening of inter-spike interval (ISI) in AP firing. The change in ISIs with number of interval is periodic with the phase-locking. In addition, increased maximal conductance of ITRP can abolish chaotic pattern of AP firing in model neuron during exposure to high-frequency voltage. The ISI pattern is converted from irregular to constant, as maximal conductance of ITRP is increased under such high-frequency voltage. Our simulation results suggest that modulation of TRP-like channels functionally expressed in small-diameter peripheral sensory neurons should be an important mechanism through which it can contribute to the firing pattern of APs.
