Transcript levels that were significantly different in the spinal cord of lean and obese Zucker rats. Lean rats exposed to vibration displayed a reduction in NGFβ, NOS-1, and Vimentin-1. However these same rats displayed an increase in synaptotagmin-1. In obese rats exposed to vibration, NGF, NOS-1 and vimentin-1 were increased, while synaptotagmin-1 was reduced (*p<0.05).
