- Total number of cells counted as 100%; all values are HA-labeled cells expressed as % of counted cells. Values are means ± SE; 3 rats in each rat group.
- *d: cell diameter. †Total: total percentage, including small, medium and large cells, of HA-labeled cells.
- There were no significant differences between hMOR and hMOR groups in all sizes of DRG neurons.
