Schematic view of mechanism underlying SCI-induced NP. (A). SCI induced the upregulation of NGF, and consequently increased phosphorylated JUN and the upregulation of Nav1.7 in SDH and DRG neurons of mice. (B). Nav1.7 selective blockers attenuated SCI-induced NP in mice through inhibiting the activity of Nav1.7 in both the spinal cord and DRG.
