The size distribution of DRG neurons are best described by three populations. A. The cumulative distribution function of cell sizes was fit by one, two, or three normal populations (broken-line, dotted line and solid line, respectively). Analysis of the residual (lower traces) indicated a significantly better fit with three populations compared to one or two populations. B. The three cell size populations identified in A: small cells (Blue) with capacitance <44 pF (diameters up to 30 μm), large cells (green) with capacitance >74 pF (diameter > 40 μm), and intermediate sized cells (red).
