MPNL induces peripheral sensory neuron injury.

(A) The DRGs L3, L4 and L5 were collected at 3–21 days after MPNL surgery. (B) On the seventh day after MPNL, the DRG were collected separately at L3, L4, L5 and L6. (C) On the seventh day after MPNL or CCI, the DRG were collected (pooled L3, L4, L5 and L6). Representative blots of the three experiments are shown as well densitometric analyses. The data are presented as the mean ± S.E.M (n = 4 per group). ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01 and *P < 0.05 indicate statistically significant differences when compared with sham mice.
