Figure 5.
Mean measurements from individual reconstructed axons for (a) cross-sectional surface area, (b) axonal diameter, (c) myelin thickness and (d) G ratio in normal and injured animals; n = 30 axons in each group. Each data point represents the mean for an individual axon derived from averaging 2D measurements made at 5 µm intervals. Data are expressed as scatter plots with the line representing the mean ± SEM. Differences between groups are indicated by *(p ≤ 0.05), none observed.
