ETA and/or BKB1 antagonist treatment improves static weight bearing tolerance. Static weight bearing tolerance was measured repeatedly at defined time points over the course of the study. Data are presented as mean ± SD per experimental group (n = 6), of weight on the right leg as a percentage of total weight on both hind limbs. Day 0, baseline pre-operative values. Repeated measures analysis of variance with Tukey post-hoc (Table 2) indicated that BKB1 antagonist treatment significantly ameliorated nociceptive tolerance in ACLT animals over the study period, as compared to saline-treated positive controls.
