AdNRTN Treatment of Adult SMG In Vivo Also Increases Staining of the Neuronal Markers VAChT and TH

(A) H&E staining of adult SMG appears similar among all treatment groups after IR of mouse SMGs. (B) Sections were also immunostained for nerves (Tubb3), VAChT, a marker of parasympathetic function, TH, a sympathetic marker, and nuclei (Hoechst). (C) Staining was quantified (five sections/gland) and normalized to nuclear staining. N = 3–4 SMGs/group. Error bars represent SEM. ANOVA compared with non-IR, *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. Scale bars: 20 μm.
