Immobilized effects of Ephrin-B3, Sema6A and BSA on DRG explant outgrowth from three distinct spinal levels. Negative guidance ratio values represent growth inhibition in region containing immobilized proteins. A, only Sema6A at the lumbosacral region showed a chemorepulsive response with a homogenous level of 5 ng/mL NGF (***p < 0.001). All other spinal levels and proteins displayed near zero guidance ratios. B, At higher NGF concentrations, only Sema6A at the lumbosacral region demonstrated chemorepulsion (**p<0.01). No statistically significant change in the average guidance ratio was apparent compared to 5 ng/mL NGF. For all conditions n=12. Error bars represent standard deviation. Significance determined with one-way ANOVA performed separately followed by the Games-Howell post-hoc analysis.
