behavior/neurological
• in a Carrageenan model
|
• prolonged pain hypersensitivity in a Carrageenan model and a chronic constriction of the sciatic nerve model
|
• in a Carrageenan or formalin model, mice exhibit increased chemical and mechanical nociception compared with wild-type mice
|
nervous system
N |
• mice exhibit normal neuron numbers and action potential properties
|
• increased action potentials in lamina IIi neurons injected with depolarizing current pulses of increased amplitudes with increased discharge frequency at the beginning of the current pulse
• lamina IIi neurons stimulated with a voltage ramp protocol fail to exhibit an outward current with slow desensitization at the end of the rising voltage ramp compared with wild-type neurons
|
• higher rebound action potential after injection of hyperpolarizing current pulses
