additional information complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) injection significantly decreases the hind paw mechanical pain threshold in Von Frey test on 1-7 days after injection and increases the caspase-11 level of ipsilateral dorsal horn of spinal cord on day 2 and day 5 after injection. Compared to wild-type mice, caspase-11-/- mice show significantly higher mechanical pain threshold in the later phase of CFA-induced pain, but not in the early phase, and have no significant difference in 5% formalin induced licking and flinching behavior. In addition, the microglial activation, and the mRNA levels of caspase-1 and IL-18 in the spinal cord of caspase-11-/- mice restore to baseline on the day 5 after CFA injection, but not in wild-type mice.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function caspase-11 contributes to in ipsilateral dorsal horn of spinal cord, and consequently to pain hypersensitivity in the later phase of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced pain of mice. Persistent neuroinflammation and central sensitization play important roles in the pathogenesis of chronic pain disease. Caspase-11 is a critical modulator of inflammation of the central nervous system Mus musculus
