To assess the receptors of TRPV1 and GABAA rat model of CIP was constructed by plantar injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), and the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) and paw withdrawal thermal latency (PWTL) were measured 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 14 days after plantar injection. In the first part of the experiment, rats with CIP were divided into the immunofluorescence group and the coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) group (n = 6). Rats in the immunofluorescence group were injected with the retrograde tracer CB conjugated with Alexa Fluor 594 into the lateral ventricle two days before the injection of CFA into the plantar surface of the left paw. Three days later, rats that exhibited hyperalgesia were perfused, and their brains were extracted and used for double immunofluorescence staining of the CSF-contacting nucleus. Rats in the Co-IP group were anesthetized and dissected 3 days after CFA injection, and fresh brain segments containing the CSF-contacting nucleus were collected for Co-IP to assess the colocalization of TRPV1 and GABATRPV1 and GABATRPV1 and GABA
