How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
Where it participates (unsigned role)
The antinociceptive effect of acetaminophen at an oral dose lacking hypolocomotor activity was absent in fatty acid amide hydrolase and TRPV1 knockout mice in the formalin, tail immersion and von Frey tests, that dose did not affect global brain contents of prostaglandin E2 or endocannabinoids, intracerebroventricular injection of AM404 produced a TRPV1-mediated antinociceptive effect in the formalin test, and pharmacological inhibition of brain TRPV1 by intracerebroventricular capsazepine abolished the antinociceptive effect of oral acetaminophen.
