Figure 6

Paclitaxel treatment does not alter C-fiber action potentials or conduction velocity. The top panels show representative C-fiber compound action potentials (CAPs) recorded from sciatic nerves isolated from vehicle-treated (A) and paclitaxel-treated (B) rats. Compound action potentials were stimulated with 5 mA current pulses of 1 ms duration. The A-fiber response, which is hidden in part by the stimulus artifact, is cropped in order to focus on the C-wave. The bottom panel shows the mean ± SEM of the C-fiber conduction velocities in m/sec for vehicle treated (open column) and paclitaxel treated (shaded column) rats.
