Effects of CXCR2 antagonist treatment on mild TBI induced mechanical hypersensitivity. (a) Systemic SCH527123 treatment for 7 days (Day 0 to 6) dose dependently attenuated mechanical hypersensitivity after TBI with the 10 mg/kg dose having the maximal reversal effect. Mechanical hypersensitivity after mild TBI remained attenuated during SCH527123 treatment and was reestablished upon cessation. (b) Intrathecal application of SCH527123 (black arrow) 3 µg on day 3 after mild TBI restored mechanical thresholds to baseline values. Data were analyzed by multiple t tests using the Holm-Sidak method to correct for multiple comparisons. *Indicates significant difference in comparison with limb measurements in TBI/vehicle group. Error bars: SEM, n = 6–8/group.
