From: Plasticity in expression of the glutamate transporters GLT-1 and GLAST in spinal dorsal horn glial cells following partial sciatic nerve ligation

Figure 3

The expression of GLAST was decreased after PSNL. A-D: Immunohistochemistry analysis reveals that GLAST was reduced in the ipsilateral dorsal horn 7 days (C) and 14 days (D) after PNSL compared to the normal group (A), However, no change was seen in the total amount of GLAST 1 day after ligation (B). E: Ratio (black bars) of the relative intensity between the ipsilateral sides of the variable groups (1 day, 7 days, and 14 days) and the control group as well as ratio (white bars) of the relative intensity between the ipsilateral and contralateral sides of the same variable groups (n = 5/group). Scale bar: (A-D) = 500 μm.
