Table 3.

Number and diameter of myelinated and unmyelinated fibers in the saphenous nerve of WT and NRTN-OE mice

No./diameter/thickness^a	WT	NRTN-OE
No. of myelinated axons	556.25 ± 14.64	550.5 ± 21.17
No. of unmyelinated axons	2472.25 ± 83.78	2430.25 ± 44.95
Diameter of myelinated axons (μm)	3.64 ± 0.11	3.92 ± 0.23^*
Diameter of unmyelinated axons (μm)	0.86 ± 0.04	1.12 ± 0.05^*
Myelin thickness (μm)	0.65 ± 0.03	0.70 ± 0.03

^aThe number of myelinated and unmyelinated axons in the saphenous nerve was unchanged in NRTN-OE mice. However, the average diameter of both populations was increased. Myelin thickness was unchanged.

*NRTN-OE > WT (p < 0.05; t test).
