In addition to molecules that are known to be highly expressed in the dorsal spinal cord, we identified other neuropeptides, ion channels, and signaling molecules enriched in the dorsal spinal cord.
However, for example, we found NK-ir structures (the antibody used in this study principally recognizes NKA)(see specificity of the antiserum in Methods) in the human brainstem in the lateral cuneate nucleus and in the pyramidal tract, in which no SP-ir structure has been described in humans [ 24 25 26 27 ] . It is known that both neuropeptides, SP and NKA, are derived from the same precursor.
Measurements of mRNA and protein made in many laboratories using diverse methodologies have identified approximately 40 genes that are up-regulated and 25 down-regulated after peripheral nerve injury [ 3 5 6 ] . These regulated genes include members of several classes: G protein coupled receptors, ligand- and voltage-gated ion channels, receptor tyrosine kinases, growth factors, cytokines, neuropeptides, cell cytoskeletal genes, cell surface/extracellular matrix genes, and a miscellaneous group of enzymes.
The 51 genes that are expressed higher in the dorsal spinal cord represent several functional categories including neuropeptides, ion channels, receptor and signaling molecules, calcium/calmodulin binding proteins, transcription factors, synaptic proteins, and others (Table 2).
Moreover, a possible interaction between NK and other neuropeptides (e.g.
