  1. The proportion of VGluT2-IR terminals which were labeled with Neurobiotin as well as the ratio of Neurobiotin-labeled VGluT2-IR terminals compared to Neurobiotin-labeled CGRP terminals were significantly lower in lateral lamina I compared to medial and mid lamina I (two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni corrections using 95% confidence limits; p < 0.05, indicated by asterisks). Analysis of L3 spinal cord sections, n = 6 animals.
