Effects of bupivacaine microspheres and RTX on nociception, motor function, and proprioception.

	Hop		Flip		Pinch (sural)		Pinch (saphenous)
	Normal	Blocked	Normal	Blocked	Normal	Blocked	Normal	Blocked
Control (n = 6)	6	0	6	0	6	0	6	0
RTX only (n = 5)	5	0	5	0	5	0	5	0
Bub only (n = 3)	0	3	0	3	0	3	3	0
SNI+vehicle (n = 10)	0	10	0	10	10	0	10	0
SNI+RTX (n = 9)	0	9	0	9	9	0	9	0
SNI+Bup (n = 5)	0	5	0	5	0	5	5	0

Nociceptive response was tested by pinching the hind paws in the sural and saphenous nerve territories. Proprioception and motor function were examined by checking hopping and flipping responses.
