Alterations of substance P (SP) level at biceps femoris muscle after one-(1D) and five-dosage (5D) of dry needling at gastrocnemius in experimental (1D and 5D groups) and sham-operated groups (s1D and s5D groups). Representative western blot photographs (a) in ipsilateral biceps femoris immediately and 5 days after dry needling at gastrocnemius. Quantification of SP levels in biceps femoris ipsilateral (b) and contralateral (c) to dry needling side expressed as mean ± SD. ∗ represents significant difference (P < .05) compared with sham-operated groups (s1D and s5D). # represents significant difference (P < .05) between 1D and 5D groups.
