Figure 2

Behavioral responses of the tail musculature to different stimuli 2 weeks following T4 transection (same rats as in Figure 1). A. Average response to stretch 1 hour following the administration of saline (n=6) or gabapentin (GBP; 50 mg/kg; n=9). B. Average response to noxious (pinch) stimulus 1 hour following the administration of saline or GBP. Responses to stretch and pinch were scored on a 5 point scale in which 0 = no spasticity and 5 = severe spasticity. Notice that following administration of GBP there was no response to stretch (A) and a striking decrease in response to pinch stimulus (B). * p<0.05 Bars represent mean ± SEM for visualization purposes only.
