Official title
SEXI: Sciatic Expression and Identification of Differential Proteins in Traumatized Versus Non-traumatized Nerves
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of the study is to elucidate the different proteins that may appear on the "injured" end of the sciatic nerve and compare it to the other end of the cut nerve, which is "uninjured". By comparing the "normal" versus "traumatized" ends of the cut sciatic nerve, the investigators hope to identify proteins that may be specifically related to pain. For instance, if the non-traumatized end of the nerve has none of Protein X but the traumatized end of the nerve has a lot of Protein X, then Protein X would be a protein that the investigators will want to study further and see if it plays any role in the sensation of pain. Other studies have shown that there are specific pain-related proteins and they may be increased or decreased after traumatic injury. If the investigators are able to identify specific proteins that are related to pain, then that may eventually lead to the development of medications that will block those proteins and decrease the sensation of pain.
