Abstract:Background: Over-expression of spinal protein kinase C γ (PKCγ) contributes to the induction
of persistent bilateral hyperalgesia following inflammatory injury, yet the role of spinal PKCγ in
short- and long-lasting pain behavior is poorly understood.
Objective: This study aimed to characterize the contribution of spinal PKCγ to spontaneous pain
and long-lasting bilateral hyperalgesia in formalin-induced inflamed mice using pharmacological
inhibition.
Study Design: Laboratory animal study.
Setting: The study w… Show more
