The transient receptor potential-melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a non-selective Ca2+-permeable channel, activated by cold, membrane depolarization, and different cooling compounds. TRPM8 expression has been found in gut mucosal, submucosal, and muscular nerve endings. Although TRPM8 plays a role in pathological conditions, being involved in visceral pain and inflammation, the physiological functions in the digestive system remain unclear as yet. The aims of the present study were: (i) to verify the TRPM8 expression in human distal colon
