Intra-wound administration of protein C (10 μg) only once, resulted in a decrease in guarding score (A) but did not affect mechanical allodynia (B) or thermal hyperalgesia (C). Treatment with activated protein C reduced guarding score from 2 hours to day 2 in comparison to control group. Values (n = 6) are represented as mean ± standard error of mean. Day 1 to 7 refers to days 1 to 7 (***P < 0.001).
