The activation of transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) receptors induces airway inflammation in bronchial asthma

Cold air is a major environmental factor that exacerbates bronchial asthma, and transient receptor potential melastatin family member 8 (TRPM8) receptor is a cold- and menthol-sensing cation channel expressed in sensory neurons as well as bronchial epithelial cells.
