Animal study. ⋯ Our results indicate that nerve compression plus NP application produces the most pain-related behavior. CGRP-IR nerve terminals increased in laminae I and II that transmit pain and in laminae III to VI that transmit proprioception. Findings suggest that nerve compression plus NP application induces changes in CGRP expression in the superficial and deep laminae, and these changes are partly responsible for disc herniation pain.
