Figure 6. Correlation between microglial activation and OPC counts and proliferation.

Figure 6

Pearson’s correlations were performed to look for associations between Iba1 PTA values and total OPC or proliferating OPC counts at 24h and 48h after ligation. At 24h after ligation, there was a significant negative correlation between ASVZ-r OPC counts and the adjacent SVWM Iba1 on the ligated side (r= −0.88, p < 0.05, n= 5, A). Such correlation was not significant in control animals (n= 4). At 24h and 48h after ligation, there was a significant negative correlation between SVWM proliferating OPC counts (ligated side) and Mid-CC Iba1 in ligated animals (r= −0.58, p < 0.05, n=12) but not in controls (n=12).
