The goal of our study was to determine the effect the TRPV1 I585V SNP has on lung cells.  NHBE cells, obtained from 4 different donor (Lonza), were genotyped to identify the presence of the TRPV1 SNP I585V.  Of the 4 patient samples, 2 were heterozygous for the I585V SNP and 2 expressed WT TRPV1.  These cells were plated in 12 well plates and treated with Coal Fly Ash (CFA) at multiple concentrations and capsasian.  Differences between the patient samples were assessed.
