Trpv1 mediates heat hyperalgesia during S. aureus infection. a Heat hyperalgesia was measured by the Hargreaves’ radiant heat test in resiniferatoxin (RTX) vs. vehicle-treated mice following S. aureus infection (1 × 106 CFU, USA300). Forty seconds is the maximum cutoff for this assay. n = 12 mice per group. p values, two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s post-test. b Heat hyperalgesia measured in Trpv1−/− compared to Trpv1+/− or Trpv1+/+ littermates following S. aureus infection. Statistical comparisons shown: Trpv1−/− vs. Trpv1+/+ littermates. p values, two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-test. n = 8–10 mice per group. c Spontaneous pain was quantified over 60 min in RTX or vehicle-treated mice infected with S. aureus (USA300, 5 × 108 CFU). n = 5 mice per group. p values by unpaired t test. d Spontaneous pain was quantified over 60 min in Trpv1−/− mice and littermate (Trpv1+/−, Trpv1+/+) controls in S. aureus-infected mice (USA300, 5 × 108 CFU). n = 8 mice per group. a, c N = 2 replicates; b, d N = 3 replicates each. p values, one-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-test. ****p < 0.0001; ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05.
