Group Fiber Type Number CV, m/s Threshold, mN Response to 147 mN
Control C 36 0.58 ± 0.03 19.6 [13.7,39.2] 45.5 ± 5.7
Nav1.8-ChR2+ C (all) 53 0.52 ± 0.03 19.6 [13.7,39.2] 45.5 ± 5.9
C (OP+) 9 0.49 ± 0.03 19.6 [13.7,39.2] 41.4 ± 4.2
C (OP−) 44 0.59 ± 0.02 13.7 [13.7,39.2] 53.7 ± 11.2

CV, conduction velocity; OP+, light responsive; OP−, light nonresponsive; mN, mechanical response threshold.
