Intraplantar paw injection of Sema4C causes rapid nociceptive sensitization. a A schematic representation of unilateral intraplantar Sema4C application in adult wild-type mice. b Analysis of mechanical sensitivity following a single injection of Sema4C at various doses or vehicle. Response frequency to five applications of von Frey filaments exerting graded force measured at 3 h following Sema4C injection is shown. c Time-course analyses of the effect of a single intraplantar dose of 1 ng Sema4C on sensitivity to 0.07 g of von Frey hair force. d Frequency of paw withdrawal in response to application of 0.07 g force via a von Frey filament upon single intraplantar dose of 1 ng Sema4C in mice lacking Plexin-B2 conditionally in adult DRG (AAV-DRG-PB2−/−) and their corresponding AAV-DRG-PB2fl/fl controls (n = 7 mice/group). In all panels, two-way ANOVA for repeated measures followed by Tukey’s test was performed, and P values comparing entire curves are represented. P < 0.05 indicated by * as compared to the corresponding control groups and by as compared to basal. Error bars represent s.e.m
