Regarding the ascending afferent excitatory pain pathway, in which nicotinic antagonists are anticipated to have analgesic effects, a newly described subtype of nAChR, α9α10, seems to be expressed on dorsal root ganglia (in addition to the inner ear) and constitutes an in vitro target for new α-conotoxins, such as vc1.1, RgiA, or it14a237–241.
