c-Fos expression in GABAergic neurons following a noxious heat stimulus was reduced in CCI-treated mice.

Percentage of EGFP-labeled neurons was not changed in CCI-treated animals. Following a noxious heat stimulus the total amount of neuronal c-Fos expression and c-Fos expression in non-EGFP neurons was not significantly different between groups. However, c-Fos expression in EGFP-labeled neurons was reduced in CCI-operated as compared to sham-treated animals. Data: mean ± s.e.m.
