title: Female C57BL6/J mice exhibit increased heat hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia compared to males following a T9 contusion spinal cord injury as measured by Hargreaves and SUDO von Frey testing

description: STUDY PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to test if contusion spinal cord injury (SCI) causes acute-to-chronic neuropathic pain-like symptoms in mice and to determine if there are sex differences in these SCI-induced pain-like behaviors. An in-depth analysis and discussion of these data was published in DOI: 10.1089/neu.2022.0482 DATA COLLECTED: The published study is the result of a comprehensive analysis of over 100 male and female 6-20 week old C57BL6/J mice pooled from several independent studies. All mice received either a sham (T9 laminectomy) or SCI surgery (T9 laminectomy followed by a 60-75 kdyn spinal cord contusion). Locomotor recovery was assessed via the Basso mouse scale (BMS), heat hyperalgesia in hindpaws was assessed via Hargreaves test (withdrawal latencies were measured for left and right hindpaws over three trials and averaged together into a single value), and mechanical allodynia in hindpaws (left and right averaged together) was assessed via the simplified up-down (SUDO) von Frey method. In general, BMS was performed at 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14 dpo (days post operation) and every 7 days thereafter, while SUDO and Hargreaves testing was performed weekly starting at 7 dpo. Initially, a range (60, 65, and 75 kdyn) of target forces was used to determine an appropriate contusion force to use in conjunction with Hargreaves and von Frey testing. 60 and 65 kdyn had comparable results and were pooled together while 75 kdyn resulted in confounding technical issues related to hindpaw placement (see CONCLUSIONS below)—consequently, 60 kdyn was ultimately chosen for the larger sex differences study. Overall, this data set includes pre-surgery testing data and at least 3 (usually 6+) post-surgery BMS, SUDO von Frey, and/or Hargreaves data points for 170 mice (48 SCI and 44 sham females; 38 SCI and 40 sham males).
