Abstract
In a recent issue of Cell, Deng etal. show that S.aureus serine protease V8 triggers itch, independent of inflammation, by activating sensory neurons through PAR1. This study presents mechanistic insights into pruritogenic bacteria and their interactions with sensory neurons while providing a possible approach for treating itch-related diseases.
