Figure 2

GFAP expression in TG after LNC. Photomicrographs of TG neurons encircled with GFAP-IR cells in the V3 branch region in naïve rats and those on day 3 after sham operation or LNC (A: naïve, B: sham, C: LNC). Time-course changes are shown in the mean relative number of TG neurons encircled with GFAP-IR cells on days 3, 9, 15 and 21 after sham operation or LNC. D: V1/V2 branch regions in TG, E: V3 branch region in TG. *: p < 0.05, **: p < 0.01, ***: p < 0.001 (n = 5 in each group, Student's t-test). Scale bars = 50 μm.
