TRP Channels as Therapeutic Targets: From Basic Science to Clinical Use, Second Edition is a comprehensive reference on the roles of TRP Channels in health and disease states. Chapters are completely updated, withe new topics on TRP channels biology, the crystalline structure of TRP channels, targeting TRP channels for pain relief, the relationship with migraine, emerging pain targets, a comprehensive view of the role of TRP channels in respiratory diseases and COVID complications, anxiety relief, renal disease, arthritis, and therapeutic opportunities for thermal regulation. This is a great reference for broad segments of the scientific and medical community. Researchers working on TRP channel drug discovery will benefit from the overview of applications to conditions in specific organ systems. Clinicians interested in new drugs in the pipeline will also find this book helpful for biologic principles of action.

Arpad Szallasi is a leading expert on the roles of TRP channels in health and disease. He was the first to provide a biochemical proof for the existence of the vanilloid (capsaicin) receptor, now known as TRPV1. Currently, he holds an Associate Professor position at the 1st Department of Pathology and Experimental Cancer Research, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary. His research focuses on targeting of TRP channels for therapeutic purposes, with special emphasis on pain and inflammation. Arpad Szallasi obtained his MD degree Summa cum Laude from the Medical University School of Debrecen, Hungary (1984). He received his PhD degree in Pharmacology from the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden (1995). Arpad Szallasi held several research positions both in academia (Karolinska Institute, Washington University, St. Louis, MO) and industry (Menarini Ricerche Sud, Pomezia, Italy) before pursuing a carrier in diagnostic pathology. Arpad Szallasi is a past President for the New Jersey Association of Blood Bank Professional and a former medical advisor to the American Red Cross.
