Supporting an involvement of TRPV1 in endometriosis associated pain, elevated expression of TRPV1 has been found in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of rats with endometriosis (Lian et al., 2017) as well as locally on infiltrating adhesions in endometriosis patients, the increase correlating with pain intensity (Rocha et al., 2011; Bohonyi et al., 2017). Here, TRPV1 is linked to endometriosis.
