Figure 11

Post-treatment with rapamycin suppressed unilateral thermal hypersensitivity and bilateral mechanical hypersensitivity induced by intraplantar BmK I injection. (A and B) showed the suppressive effects on BmK I-induced the ipsilateral (A) and contralateral (B) mechanical hypersensitivity by different doses of rapamycin post-treatment (20 μM, 200 μM and 2 mM). (C and D) showed that different doses of rapamycin post-treatment (20 μM, 200 μM and 2 mM) suppressed ipsilateral (C) thermal hypersensitivity but did not affect the contralateral basal thermal threshold value (D). **P<0.01, ***P<0.001, compared with relevant control groups treated with DMSO. n=8 for each group.
