Fig. 1 — Spinal cord astrocyte identification and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) knockdown. a Spinal cord astrocytes were identified using immunofluorescence. The percentage of cells stained with the astrocytic marker S100β, which were identified as astrocytes, was more than 95% of the total cells (three replicates). b HMGB1 knockdown efficiency in the plasma membrane and cytoplasm of spinal cord astrocytes was evaluated using Western blot for HMGB1 protein levels. Results were obtained after 72 h of specific HMGB1 shRNA treatment. HMGB1 protein levels were decreased to approximately 30% of normal levels with shRNA multiplicity of infection 60 as compared to normal astrocytes. *P < 0.05 vs. normal group (three replicates)
