Research Abstract |
To clarify the role and functions of Neuropathic Pain RelatedProtein-A,-B (NPRP-A、NPRP-B) , we analyzed biological properties and pain responses after spared nerve injury (SNI) of NPRP-B using specific antibody and knock-out mice. NPRP-B is highly expressed in the central nervous system including spinal dorsal horn and especially enriched in synaptosomal fraction. NPRP-B exists as phosphorylated protein. In NPRP-B knock-out mice, mechanical allodynia is significantly reduced after SNIcompared with that in wild-type mice.
