Anion exchanger 3 in dorsal root ganglion contributes to nerve injury-induced chronic mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia.OBJECTIVE
 Von Frey filaments and Hargreaves test were used to assess tactile allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia, respectively.  SNI produced long-lasting mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia.  Data suggest that AE3 is present in DRG and contributes to mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in neuropathic rats.
