Post-transection (3 and 5 weeks) swing length and swing height index for all cats at the 6 treadmill speeds tested (0.3 to 0.8 m/s). A: swing length index for the BDNF cats. B: swing length index for the NT-3 cats. C: swing height index for the BDNF cats. D: swing height index for the NT-3 cats. Data were normalized with pre-transection values for each cat. In both groups, most cats were able to locomote with plantar weight bearing steps at speeds up to 0.8 m/s by 5 weeks post-transection. However, one cat in each group did not recover. Number of steps n = 20 for each situation. Data are mean±SD of the 20 steps for each cat. Recovery in swing length index obtained with body-weight supported locomotor training is indicated by a dashed line in panel B (Belanger et al/De Leon et al), while the recovery obtained with transplant producing both neurotrophins but no locomotor training is indicated by a dotted line (Boyce et al).
