Fig. 2. Expression of apoptotic and TUNEL cells in spinal cord sections of rats.

Fig. 2

(A) Cryo-sections from injured rats after 3 weeks stained with Hoechst 33343 shows merged image showing TUNEL cells on apoptotic cells (↑). Bar = 100 μm. (B) Quantitative estimation of apoptotic and TUNEL cells. (Error bars indicate SEM. * Significant at p <0.05). (C) Quantitative estimation of TUNEL-positive cells in the tissue sections up to 2 mm rostral and caudal to the injury epicenter. (Error bars indicate SEM. * Significant at p <0.05). Results are from 3 independent sections between 1 and 2 mm from the injury epicenter (n ≥ 3).
