Abstract: | Growth associated protein-43 (GAP-43) is considered to be one of the most useful molecular markers for the neural development, nerve regeneration, and neuroplasticity. In most mature neurons, the expression of GAP-43 is at very low or negative level; its expression is triggered in response to the interruption of axonal transport. The purpose of this study was to examine whether continuous sciatic nerve block by tetrodotoxin (TTX) affects GAP-43 expression in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of normal and sciatic nerve injury rats. |
