Dexmedetomidine (Dex) mitigated chronic constriction injury (CCI)-induced neuropathic pain. (A) Paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) (g) at 0, 1, 3, 7, and 14 days after operation. (B) Paw withdrawal latency (PWL) (s) at 0, 1, 3, 7, and 14 days after operation. (C) IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α expression levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. (D) mRNA levels of caspase-9, Bax, and Bak in spinal cord tissues were determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. (E) Protein levels of caspase-9, Bax, and Bak in spinal cord tissues were determined using western blotting. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs. Sham group; ##P < 0.01 vs. CCI group.
