Effect of treadmill exercise on pain-related Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in dorsal root ganglion neurons at the early phase regeneration of the injured sciatic nerve

The purpose of this study was to determine whether treadmill walking exercise can improve mechanical allodynia through regulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons at the early stage of regeneration after sciatic nerve injury (SNI). The experimental rats were divided i...
