From: Expression of Nav1.7 in DRG neurons extends from peripheral terminals in the skin to central preterminal branches and terminals in the dorsal horn

Figure 3

Expression of Nav1.7 in glabrous skin. PGP9.5 (green) intraepidermal nerve fibers (IENF) branch from nerve bundles (arrowheads) at dermis/epidermis boundary (dotted line) and ascend in the epidermis. PGP9.5-positive IENF exhibit Nav1.7 (red) immunolabeling. Inset. Both IENF extending to stratum granulosum (more superficial) and to the stratum spinosum exhibit Nav1.7 labeling.
