Figure 2. Functional enrichment of light touch-sensitive neurons in the star-nosed mole trigeminal ganglia.

Figure 2

(A) Representative images of Fura-2 loaded star-nosed mole TG and DRG neurons before and after exposure to 10% radial stretch and capsaicin (1 µM). (B) Average percentage of TG (green) and DRG (grey) neurons activated by capsaicin (Cap), mustard oil (MO), menthol (Me), hydroxy-α-sanshool (San), hypotonic solution (Hypo) and 10% radial stretch (Str) (error bars represent s.e.m. n = 4 samples, **p< 0.01, *p< 0.05 by one way ANOVA).
