Figure 6From: Satellite glial cell P2Y12 receptor in the trigeminal ganglion is involved in lingual neuropathic pain mechanisms in rats Effect of P2YR agonist on GFAP expression in naïve rats. Photomicrographs of GFAP-IR cells in V3 branch region following daily successive vehicle (A) or 2-MeSADP (B) administration (from day 0 to day 2) into TG on day 3 in naïve rats. C: The size-frequency histogram illustrating distribution of somata of TG neurons encircled with GFAP-IR cells in V3 region following successive daily 2-MeSADP (10.0 nmol/day) or vehicle administration (from day 0 to day 2) into TG on day 3 in naïve rats (C) **: p < 0.01, ***: p < 0.001 (n = 5 in each group, Student's t-test). Scale bars = 50 μm.Back to article page
