Neutrophil responses to CT sectioning in neutrophil-depleted and control rats. HIS48 was used to label neutrophils following neurophysiological recordings. Neutrophils (brown) are present on the (A) sectioned and (B) intact side of the tongue in a rat receiving unilateral nerve sectioning and normal rabbit serum (NRS). Few neutrophils are present on the (C) sectioned or (D) uninjured side of the tongue in rats given CT sectioning and anti-polymorphonuclear (PMN) serum. (E) The number of neutrophils on the both sides of the tongue was significantly reduced by anti-PMN treatment. Scale bar in C = 30 µm. * p = 0.04; **p=0.005.
