Peripheral neuropathy was induced by the administration of vincristine (100 μg/kg, i.p.) for 10 days. On the 28th day, saline or DPCPX (10 μg/10 μl) was intrathecally administered 15 min before intrathecal R-PIA administration (1.0 μg/10 μl or 3.0 μg/10 μl). Mechanical static allodynia was then assessed using the von Frey filament test (gram). Results are expressed as mean ± standard error of mean, n = 6 rats per group. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test.
