Figure 1. Gastric vagal afferent nerve mechanosensitivity in 3-day control and T3-SCI.

Figure 1.

Mechanical stimulation (6.0g and 60.0g) of the gastric serosa with von Frey Hairs revealed a significant reduction in gastric vagal afferent sensitivity in 3-day T3-SCI rats (*p < 0.05 vs control, n = 14). Representative traces of gastric vagal afferent nerve responses to mechanical stimulation from both 3-day control and T3-SCI rats (A). Vagal nerve afferent activity percent change from baseline represented in 3-day control vs T3-SCI (B). Bars above the trace represent stimulus onset and duration. Baseline level of activity is represented with a dotted line.

Values expressed as mean ± SEM.
