FIG. 8.

(A) Bar chart illustrating the total number of neuronal nuclear-specific protein–positive neurons in the dorsal horn per section in different animal groups. (B) Bar chart illustrating the total number of neurons in laminae 1–4 of dorsal horn in different experimental groups at 1 week postsurgery. Note the significant decrease in the number of neurons in CRUSH group, compared to naïve and sham groups, in both the dorsal horn of the spinal cord and different laminae. Data represent mean±SEM (n=6 in all groups; ANOVA followed by Bonferroni's post-test). EGCG, (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate; GFAP, glial fibrillary acidic protein; DH, dorsal horn.
