Migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and dopamine content in L-SC and VTA in CCI mice over the 70-day observation period. MIF and dopamine content in microdialysate obtained from L-SC and VTA were detected with ELISA and HPLC, respectively, on days 0, 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 21, 35, 49 and 70 post CCI. Time-dependent MIF content upregulation in L-SC and VTA, as well as inversed dopamine content downregulation, are shown in a and b (*P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs day 0). Data are shown as the means±s.e.m.’s and were analyzed with one-way ANOVA. N=15 in each group. CCI, chronic constriction injury; L-SC, lumbar spinal cord L5-6; VTA, ventral tegmental area.
