Pioglitazone Attenuates Tactile Allodynia and Thermal Hyperalgesia in Mice Subjected to Peripheral Nerve Injury
To clarify the role of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in neuropathic pain, we examined the effect of pioglitazone, a PPARγ agonist, on tactile allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in a neuropathic pain model. Mice were subjected to partial sciatic nerve ligation (PSL) and given p...
