Staphylococcus aureus produces pain through pore-forming toxins and neuronal TRPV1 that is silenced by QX-314

Bacterial infection can cause pain but the underlying mechanism is unclear. This study shows pain induced in mice by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection is mediated by bacterial pore-forming toxins, and a sodium channel blocker QX-314 can alleviate infection-associated pain.
