Lesion Epicenters - Typical lesion epicenters from three rats with pain-like responses to touch/pressure at-level. The cross-section to the left is from an ovariectomized female (mean five-week allodynia score of 5.0; 224 Kdyn impactor force), the middle section is from a placebo-treated male (mean allodynia score of 7.0; 221 Kdyn), and the section to the right is from an estradiol-treated male (mean allodynia score of 6.8; 216 Kdyn). The sections were stained with both luxol fast blue (indicates the presence of myelin) and cresyl violet (to stain Nissl substance in nervous tissue).
