Astrocytic reactivity 6 weeks following two degrees of spinal cord injury. Bright field micrographs displaying GFAP-positive astrocytes after mid- (A–I) and high- (J–R) injury severities of the spinal cord. Astrocytes displayed typical stellate morphology with multiple non-overlapping branched processes both above and below the lesion sites (C,I,L,R), whilst reactive astrocytes with elongated morphology and numerous over-lapping processes were localized adjacent to the lesion site (F,O). Scale bar (A,D,G,J,M,P): 250 μm, (B,E,H,K,N,Q): 50 μm, (C,F,I,L,O,R): 10 μm.
