N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• enhanced aversion to moderate doses of capsaicin
• briefer latency in a hot plate test

integument
• chloroquine, histamine or compound 48-80 elicit a robust enhancement of scratching behavior in the first 5 min after injection

nervous system
• in isolectin B4+ neurons increase in action potential firing and a decrease in threshold is seen
• absence of Na+-dependent leak current in dissociated small diameter dorsal root ganglions neurons
