Fig. 2.
IF staining of the NK-1 receptor and the changes in GFAP in TGs and SGC cultures. a, b IF staining of the NK-1 receptor in rat TG slices and SGC cultures. (green: NK-1; red: GS; blue: DAPI). c, d IF staining of GFAP on rat TG slices and SGC cultures. (red: GFAP; blue: DAPI). Scale bars: 50 μm. The representative WB images and the bar graph shown in (e) illustrated that the expression of GFAP in the CFA-treated groups was higher than that in the vehicle-treated groups. The representative WB images and the bar graph shown in (f) illustrate that the expression of GFAP in SP-treated SGCs was higher than that in vehicle-treated SGCs. (n = 6, *P < 0.05 compared with the vehicle group)
