Figure 5.

Photomicrographs (a) and bar graph (b) showing microglia responses in the spinal dorsal horn seven days postoperative. Little Iba1 immunostaining was observed in the Sham group, but the CCI group showed markedly increased Iba1 immunostaining. Iba1-immunostaining microglia profiles were characterized by big, thick, and irregular-shaped cytoplasmic and spine ramified processes in the CCI group, and significantly fewer Iba1-immunoreactive microglias were present in the HBO group than in the CCI group. Higher quantities of Iba1-immunoreactive microglias were observed in the K3 group than in the HBO group. *p < 0.05, ns, p > 0.05. n = 4. CCI: chronic constriction injury; HBO: hyperbaric oxygen.
