Fig. 5: EP2 in Schwann cells blockade abates hindpaw mechanical allodynia (allodynia) but does not delay pain resolution.

a–c Allodynia, paw thickness and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity assay after complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) or vehicle (Veh) in C57BL/6 J mice treated for 6 consecutive days with diclofenac (25 mg/kg, i.p.), PF-04448948 (PF, 10 mg/kg, i.g.) or Veh (n = 8 mice/group). d–i allodynia, paw thickness and MPO activity assay after CFA or Veh in P1p-Cre or Control mice infected with AAV for selective silencing of d–f, EP2 (-Ptger2) (Plp-Ptger2) or g–i, AKAP150 (Plp-Akap150) (n = 8 mice/group). Data are mean ± s.e.m. a, b, d, e, g, h, 2-way or c, f, i, 1-way ANOVA, Bonferroni correction. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 vs. Veh, Control/Veh †P < 0.05, ††P < 0.01, ††††P < 0.0001 vs. CFA/Veh, Control/CFA, §§P < 0.01, §§§§P < 0.0001 vs. CFA/diclofenac.
