Top: representative Western blots showing GluR1 protein (A) and GluR2 protein (B) in total soluble
fraction from the ipsilateral and contralateral dorsal horns of nave rats (n = 4/time point) and the rats
at 2 and 24 h after saline (S) or CFA injection (C).
Bottom: statistics of the densitometric analysis expressed relative to the control (-actin).
GluR2 expression in 150 k-g spin fraction (A) and plasma membrane fraction (B) from ipsilateral DH at 2 h, 1
d, and 3 d after saline or CFA. Top, Representative Western blots; bottom, statistics of the densitometric
analysis (relative to the naive animals - 0 h).
C, Surface expression of GluR2 and NR1 in DH neurons at 1 d after CFA or saline. The amount of sample
loaded for the total (T) was 10% of that for the biotinylated surface (S). Actin was used as a control.

At synapses (green), there are mobile and immobile pools of AMPARs. Mobile receptors
leaving synapses can be trapped at EZs (red) either for transient stabilization or for
endocytosis (red arrow) and recycling (blue arrow). Newly exocytosed receptors exhibit
high mobility and accumulate at synapses.
27
Conclusion
Increased functional expression of
extrasynaptic Ca2+-permeable AMPARs
contributes to the maintaining of
persistent inflammation

AMPARs-mediated Pain Plasticity
Antisense oligonucleotides a new
strategy of pain treatment
29
Antisense oligonucleotides are single strands of DNA or RNA that are complementary
to a chosen sequence. In the case of antisense RNA they prevent protein translation of
certain messenger RNA strands by binding to them. Antisense DNA can be used to
target a specific, complementary (coding or non-coding) RNA. If binding takes places
this DNA/RNA hybrid can be degraded by the enzyme RNase H.
