Pain-relieving effects of DLTH in DMM-induced osteoarthritis. (A) Effects of DLTH treatment on the NRT values in OA mice. (B) Serum level profiles of PGE2 in all groups. (C) Pain-relieving effects of DLTH on gene expressions of pro-inflammatory and pain-related factors in DRGs. All data are presented as a value relative to those in the Ctrl group. All data were expressed as mean ± SEM. ###P<0.001, ####P<0.0001; *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001, ****P<0.0001. Ctrl, control; DLTH, dexamethasone-loaded thermo-sensitive hydrogel; DMM, destabilization of the medial meniscus; DRGs, dorsal root ganglia; NRT, nociceptive response time; OA, osteoarthritis; PGE2, prostaglandin E2; SEM, standard error of the mean.
