Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 1. A) Thermal hyperalgesia evoked by the administration of 100 ng/kg of CCL4 (s.c.; 1 h before testing) and its prevention by the CCR5 selective antagonist DAPTA (5 mg/kg, s.c., 1 h before testing). (N = 5–6). **P < 0.01 compared with saline (SAL)-treated group, Tukey's test. On top, a diagram of the experimental design is shown. B) Mice received the i.p. administration of anti-CD3 antibody (1 μg/mouse; N = 5) or the corresponding IgG2bκ isotype (1 μg/mouse; N = 5) and 24 h later, withdrawal latencies were taken before any further treatment (BASAL). Next, mice received the acute administration of CCL4 (100 ng/kg) and 1 h later withdrawal latencies were measured again (n = 5). **P < 0.01 compared with the corresponding basal latencies, Bonferroni's correction. On top, a diagram of the experimental design is shown. C) Effect of i.p. treatment 24 h before with either anti-CD3 antibody (1 μg/mouse; N = 5) or IgG2bκ isotype (1 μg/mouse; N = 5) on the total number of circulating white blood cells, lymphocytes, mid-size cells and granulocytes. Individual data are represented as red (anti-CD3 antibody) or blue (isotype) circles and their mean and corresponding S.E. appears as a short red or blue line, respectively. **P < 0.01 compared with isotype-treated group, Bonferroni's correction.

Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 2. Determination by flow cytometry of CCR5 surface expression on CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets coming from peripheral blood collected from naïve mice. Histograms of the left-hand side depict representative examples of the fluorescence distribution (mean fluorescence intensity, MFI) detected in the APC channel (CCR5-APC) in cells coming from one sample showing the fluo rescence for the FMO sample (without CCR5 staining) and its CCR5-stained counterpart obtained in CD3+ (A), CD4+ (B) and CD8+ (C) cells. The graphs of the right-hand side show percentages of cells expressing CCR5 on CD3+ (A), CD4+ (B) and CD8+ (C). Dots correspond to individual values ob tained in each sample and red lines represent the calculated mean and the corresponding S.E. (n = 9).

Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 9. Graphic explanation of the mechanisms proposed to be involved in the switch from analgesia to hyperalgesia when systemic doses of CCL4 are increased from pg/kg to ng/kg. The administration of 100 ng/kg of CCL4 leads to CCR5 activation and the subsequent release of IL-16 from circulating CD8+ T-cells. The activation by IL-16 of CD4 receptors expressed in CD4+ T-cells could evoke CCR5 desensitization in this lymphocyte subset, thus impeding the release of met-enk responsible on the analgesia evoked by lower doses of CCL4 [3]. Besides, the blood increase of hypernociceptive mediators, such as CCL2, CXCL1 and IL-1α [5] provokes a hyperalgesic response.
Techniques Used: Activation Assay
