^aArch⁺ fibers and CGRP antibody staining in DRGs overlap extensively. Counts were from sections of lumbar 1–6 DRG from CGRP-Arch Cre⁻ and Cre⁺ animals (5–11 representative sections per animal, n = 3 per genotype). The percentage of Arch-GFP⁺, CGRP⁺ neurons was calculated for Cre⁻ and Cre⁺ animals. Cre⁻ animals did not express Arch-GFP, whereas Arch⁺ fibers extensively overlapped with CGRP antibody staining in Cre⁺ animals. The exact number of neurons counted for each animal is shown in parentheses below the percentage. Percentages are mean ± SEM.
