Small Fiber Neuropathy<br />
• Dysfunction of small myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibers:<br />
‣ Burning pain (feet > hands)<br />
‣ Autonomic sx (orthostatic hypotension,<br />
impotence, palpitations etc)<br />
‣ Dx: Normal neurol. exam (DTR’s, Vibr.<br />
sensation, Muscle Str.)<br />
‣ EMG, NCV: wnl<br />

Patient<br />
‣ Dx confirmed by:<br />
Reduced IENFD on Cutan. Nerve Bx<br />
QST (warmth,cold sensation, heat pain)<br />

‘ When Hodgkin and I finished writing the 1952<br />
papers, each of us moved to other lines of work<br />
because we could not see how to make progress on<br />
the mechanism of channel action. Any idea of<br />
analyzing the channels by patch clamp or molecular<br />
biology would have seemed to us to be… science<br />
fiction ‘.<br />
Andrew Huxley, in The Axon, 1995
Na V 1.5 channels, localized on the endosomal membrane,<br />
provide a route for Na efflux that offsets proton influx during<br />
acidification of phagocytosed material<br />
Activation of Na V 1.5 with Veratridine triggers Na efflux and proton influx<br />
(acidification) of purified THP-1 endosomes<br />
