Abstract: | BACKGROUND:Inflammatory responses in injured nerves have been recognized as important factors for initially sensitizing nociceptive neurons.Cyclooxygenase(COX) is the rate-limiting enzyme in prostaglandin synthesis,and COX-2 inhibitor is involved in mechanisms of analgesia and anti-inflammation. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of COX-2 inhibitor on thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia, as well as expression of growth associated protein 43(GAP-43) and nerve growth factor(NGF) in dorsal root ganglion,in a... |
