We have previously found that tissue type and urokinase type plasminogen activators (tPA and uPA) are induced in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons after peripheral axotomy and that tPA plays crucial roles in generating neuropathic pain. Here we examined whether the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and -2 (PAI-1 and PAI-2) mRNA, endogenous inhibitors of tPA and uPA, are induced in the DRG following sciatic nerve transection. L4 and L5 DRG sections were examined using in situ hybridization histochemistry. The results showed that both PAI-1 and PAI-2 mRNA were up-regulated in DRG neurons within 1 day, and peaked at 1-3 days, after injury. Reduction of these mRNA was observed from 7 days after injury. The precise expression patterns of PAI-1 and PAI-2 mRNA at 3 days after axotomy revealed that PAI-1 mRNA was observed in predominantly small neurons, while much of the PAI-2 mRNA was expressed in large neurons. Double-labeling analysis of these mRNAs with activated transcription factor 3, known as an injury marker, revealed that most PAI-1 and PAI-2 mRNAs was induced in injured neurons. Co-expression of PAI-1, 2 with tPA and uPA in DRG neurons suggests that these inhibitors may act in an autocrine manner to modulate extracellular proteolytic activity after nerve injury.
