概要	Background: Postoperative pain control contributes to quality of life. Activation of spinal cord microglia after peripheral nerve injury contributes to mechanical hypersensitivity. The contribution of spinal cord microglia to hypersensitivity after surgery, however, is not well understood. Here, the authors evaluated whether inhibition of spinal microglia reduced postoperative mechanical hypersensitivity, and if so, whether the effect differed from that in a rat neuropathic pain model.Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent either unilateral plantar hind paw incision (postoperative pain model) or L5 spinal nerve transection (neuropathic pain model), and the development of mechanical hypersensitivity was assessed using von Frey filaments. The microglial inhibitor minocycline was intraperitoneally administered daily for either 3 or 7 days. Spinal microglial activation was evaluated by OX42 immunohistochemistry. We also tested the effect of intrathecal administration of a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor, SB203580.Results: In the postoperative pain model, minocycline did not suppress mechanical hypersensitivity, but did inhibit an increase in spinal OX42 expression
