Abstract
Bone fractures pose a significant public health challenge, often necessitating surgical interventions to facilitate bone healing and functional recovery. Sensory nerve fibers innervate various compartments of the bone tissue, with the periosteum exhibiting the most extensive innervation that is susceptible to injury during trauma. Despite its importance, the effect of injured periosteum on fracture pain remains unknown. This study examines the impact of extensive periosteal injury on fracture pain by using a mouse model. Periosteal injury is induced by mechanical resection during unilateral transverse fracture and compared to transverse fractures with no periosteal injury. Our results demonstrate that extensive periosteal injury induces severe and long-term pain, as assessed by von Frey and BIO-DWB-DUAL measurements, for up to 12 weeks postfracture. Immunofluorescence staining revealed an increase in local neurofilament heavy polypeptide (NF200 +) nerve innervation and an elevated number of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP +) expressing neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG). Additionally, flow cytometric analyses revealed increased presence of myeloid immune cells in the DRG. Furthermore, bone healing in fractures with extensive periosteal injury exhibited reduced callus size at all time points as assessed by Faxitron X-ray imaging. This study describes a previously unknown effect of extensive periosteal injury in exacerbating fracture pain and establishes a potential model to study long-term orthopedic fracture pain.

The advanced version of our Dynamic Weight Bearing Test for rodents (rats and mice) allows for faster paw identification, based on a video solution taking advantage of the most advanced algorithms of morphologic analysis, weight distribution and postural changes in dynamic conditions. An efficient and advanced alternative to traditional incapacitance tests (i.e. the paw pressure test or the force plate test) for assessing pain sensitivity in your research on analgesia, hyperalgesia and nociception involving rats and mice, including work on osteoarthritis, bone cancer, analgesic substances, Parkinson disease, allodynia...
