Abstract

Mechanical allodynia(MA),including punctate and dynamic forms,is a common and debilitating symptom suffered by millions of chronic pain patients.Some periph-eral injuries result in the development of bilateral MA,while most injuries usually led to unilateral MA.To date,the con-trol of such laterality remains poorly understood.Here,to study the role of microglia in the control of MA laterality,we used genetic strategies to deplete microglia and tested both dynamic and punctate forms of MA in mice.Surpris-ingly,the depletion of central microglia did not prevent the induction of bilateral dynamic and punctate MA.Moreo-ver,in dorsal root ganglion-dorsal root-sagittal spinal cord slice preparations we recorded the low-threshold Aβ-fiber stimulation-evoked inputs and outputs of superficial dorsal horn neurons.Consistent with behavioral results,microglial depletion did not prevent the opening of bilateral gates for Aβ pathways in the superficial dorsal horn.This study chal-lenges the role of microglia in the control of MA lateral-ity in mice.Future studies are needed to further understand whether the role of microglia in the control of MA laterality is etiology-or species-specific.
