Figure 4From: Upregulation of casein kinase 1ε in dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord after mouse spinal nerve injury contributes to neuropathic pain CK1ε expression in the DRG neurons after spinal nerve injury. (A-C) Immunofluorescent micrographs showing CK1ε-positive neurons in L5 DRG sections from sham- (A) and SNL- (B) operated C57BL/6J mice, and SNL-operated Ca v 2.2-/- mice (C). Scale bar, 50 μm. (D, E) Percentages (D) and immunofuorescence intensities (E) of CK1ε-positive neurons in the DRGs. DRG neurons were divided into small-sized (< 600 μm2), medium-sized (600-1200 μm2), and large-sized (> 1200 μm2) groups based on their cross-sectional areas. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 (one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test). n = 12.Back to article page
