Effects of miR-155 inhibitor on mechanical and cold sensitivity. Paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) and cold sensitivity expressed as time spent on the cold plate (%) were examined in control rats and BTZ rats. (A) PWT was smaller in BTZ than in control rats at different time courses. Intrathecal injection of miR-155 inhibitor (3 μg each day over three consecutive days), but not its scramble, increased PWT in BTZ rats 1 day after its injection. (B) showing that time spent on the cold plate was less in BTZ rats than in control rats. MiR-155 inhibitor elevated % time spent on the cold plates in BTZ rats 1 day after its injection. Mir-155 inhibitor scramble had no effects on % time spent on the cold plates in BTZ rats. *P < 0.05, BTZ rats vs. control rats. #P < 0.05, BTZ rats with inhibitor vs. BTZ rats and BTZ rats with scramble. The number of rats in each group was shown on the figure.
