Figure 7

Effects of DAMGO on discharges of sensory fibres in injured nerves. Baseline discharge rates of Aβ (RAM, SAM) and Aδ (D-hair, AM) fibres to nanomotor stimulation were not significantly altered by DAMGO (100 μM) (P > 0.05; 2-way RM ANOVA) (A-D). DAMGO significantly diminished the discharges of C fibres (*P < 0.05, 2-way RM ANOVA, Bonferroni t test) (E). All data are expressed as means ± SEM. N, number of fibres.
