Histological examination 28 d after surgery.
| Group (n = 6) | % Area | Axon number/ 250 μm2 | Inflammatory profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sham/vehicle | 100.00 ± 6.23a | 32.55 ± 1.35a | 0.00 ± 0.00a |
| SNI/vehicle | 62.14 ± 4.04b | 17.15 ± 0.90b | 1.73 ± 0.06b |
| SNI/HERP 1 | 81.52 ± 2.66c | 26.02 ± 1.09a | 1.14 ± 0.05c |
| SNI/HERP 10 | 85.31 ± 2.85c | 49.31 ± 2.49c | 0.08 ± 0.04d |
| SNI/IBP 60 | 88.33 ± 4.51a,c | 31.00 ± 3.39a | 1.19 ± 0.06c |
Different letters in the same column indicates significant difference (p <0.0001, histological examination was submitted to one way ANOVA followed by Tukey post-hoc test. Non-Gaussian data from inflammatory profile were analyzed by the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparison tests).
