We examined transient receptor potential (TRP) V1 and TRPV2 expression in calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) positive (+) primary sensory neurons projecting to the skin and skeletal muscles of the rat dorsum. Among the dorsal root ganglia at the levels from C2 to Th1, 34.9% of neurons projecting to the skin were positive for CGRP, and 32.6% or 21.6% of neurons projecting to the trapezius muscle or the longissimus muscle were positive for CGRP. Of the small CGRP+ neurons projecting to the skin, 53.5% were positive for TRPV1, 11.6% were positive for TRPV2. Of the small CGRP+ neurons projecting to the trapezius or the longissimus, 53.1 or 53.2% were positive for TRPV1, 8.8 or 8.3% were positive for TRPV2, respectively. In the periphery, 29.3% of CGRP+ nerve fibers were positive for TRPV1 in the skin, whereas 65.0 or 59.8% were positive in the trapezius or the longissimus. Therefore, the present study showed that the percentage of CGRP+ neurons projecting to the trapezius is higher than that to the longissimus, and that the co-localization percentage of CGRP and TRPV1 on the sensory nerves was also higher in the trapezius than in the longissimus and the skin.
