NSA improves the recovery of SCI and the survival of neurons. (A) HE staining results of the sham, SCI and SCI+NSA group. Treated with 5 mg/kg NSA 15 min after SCI, NSA significant protective effect with less necrosis, karyopyknosis, infiltrated macrophages compared with the SCI group, scale bar = 50 μm. (B) NeuN/TUNEL staining results of the sham, SCI and SCI+NSA group, scale bar = 20 μm. Analysis of the positive neurons of the TUNEL staining results. *p < 0.05 vs. the sham group, # p  < 0.01 vs. the SCI group. n  =  5. SCI, spinal cord injury; NSA, necrosulfonamide; TUNEL, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-dUTP nick end labeling.
