To assess the contribution of PKA to injury-induced inflammation
and pain, we evaluated nociceptive responses in mice that carry a null
mutation in the gene that encodes the neuronal-specific isoform of the
type I regulatory subunit (RI ) of PKA. Acute pain indices did not
differ in the RI PKA mutant mice compared with wild-type controls.
However, tissue injury-evoked persistent pain behavior, inflammation of
the hindpaw, and ipsilateral dorsal horn Fos immunoreactivity was
significantly reduced in the mutant mice, as was plasma extravasation
induced by intradermal injection of capsaicin into the paw. The
enhanced thermal sensitivity observed in wild-type mice after
intraplantar or intrathecal (spinal) administration of prostaglandin
E2 was also reduced in mutant mice. In contrast, indices of
pain behavior produced by nerve injury were not altered in the mutant
mice. Thus, RI PKA is necessary for the full expression of tissue
injury-evoked (nociceptive) pain but is not required for nerve
injury-evoked (neuropathic) pain. Because the RI subunit is only
present in the nervous system, including small diameter trkA
receptor-positive dorsal root ganglion cells, we suggest that in
inflammatory conditions, RI PKA is specifically required for
nociceptive processing in the terminals of small-diameter primary
afferent fibers.
