Figure 6.

Translocator protein-18 kDa colocalizes with activated microglia in the spinal cord at 7 days after fracture. Images of control and CRPS spinal cord tissue show extensive colocalization of TSPO in activated microglia (CD11b+) at 7 days with only low levels of colocalization at baseline or 7 weeks after fracture. Scale bars are 50 µm (×20) and 50 µm (×60). White arrows in ×60 images indicate cells that are magnified in right hand panels from region outlined by white box in ×20 overlay. Representative images are shown from n = 5 control, n = 5 CRPS 7 days and n = 6 CRPS 7 weeks mice, with 3 to 5 spinal cord sections examined per mouse. CRPS, complex regional pain syndrome.
