Effect of intrathecal treatment with Cavβ3-specific siRNA (5 μg per day for 3 days) on the expression level of Cavβ3 in the DRG and spinal cord of SNL rats. A, effect of Cavβ3-specific siRNA on the mRNA level of Cavβ3 and Cavβ4 in the DRG of SNL rats (n = 4 in each group). B, effect of Cavβ3-specific siRNA on the mRNA level of Cavβ3 and Cavβ4 in the dorsal spinal cord of SNL rats (n = 4 in each group). C, Western blots (left) and quantification (right, n = 4 in each group) of the protein amount of the Cavβ3 subunit in the DRG ipsilateral and contralateral to SNL in rats treated with Cavβ3-specific siRNA or control siRNA. D, Western blots (left) and quantification (right, n = 4 in each group) of the protein amount of the Cavβ3 subunit in the dorsal spinal cord ipsilateral and contralateral to SNL in rats treated with Cavβ3-specific siRNA or control siRNA. Ipsi, ipsilateral (nerve injury) side; Cont, contralateral (control) side. *, p < 0.05, compared with the corresponding value in control siRNA-treated group.
