From: Neuropathic pain develops normally in mice lacking both Nav1.7 and Nav1.8
Analysis of neuropathic pain in nociceptor-specific Nav1.7 knockout mice and double knockout mice. (A) Both control (white circles, mean 0.56 ± 0.9, n = 8) and nociceptor-specific Nav1.7 KO (black squares, 0.48 ± 0.8, n = 11) developed robust mechanical allodynia after ligation of spinal nerve L5. There is no difference in the extent of pain behavior at any time point (P = 0.49 ANOVA). (B) WT (open circles), Nav1.8 KO (grey triangles) and DKO (black squares) developed profound mechanical allodynia after ligation of spinal nerve L5.
