Abstract

MINI: Lumbar disc herniation always generates radicular pain and mechanism is not clear. In this study, we found spinal SFKs contributed to radicular pain by activating of p38 MAPK and increasing pro-inflammatory cytokines expression in rats with NP implantation. Targeting SFKs/p38 pathway may be helpful for alleviating radicular pain.
