Figure 5. NG2 glia experience morphological changes 12 hours after probe insertion.

Figure 5

(a) Classification of ramified (R) or transitional/activated (T) NG2 glia over 72 hours. The surface of the probe is outlined in blue. Scale bar = 10 μm. (b) NG2 glia ramification as a function of distance from the probe over 72 hours. NG2 glia become activated to a radius of 190.3 μm away from the surface of the probe at 72 hours. (c) Morphological index of the transitional state of NG2 glia with respect to distance from the probe (T-index). (d) Morphological index of the orientation of NG2 glia processes with respect to distance from the probe (D-index).
