Figure 5. Axon length and density above and below the lesion site.

Figure 5.

A) Cartoon illustration indicates BDA labeled axon number and length quantification sites (C3 and C7), relative to the stimulation and lesion sites. B, C) Axons length and density in stimulation and control animals. BDA labeled axons at B1) C3 and C1) C7. Left panels: 4× magnification, scale bar: 0.5 mm. Right panels: magnified image as in the black rectangles shown in the left panel, 20× magnification, scale bar: 0.1 mm. Heatmap showing the axon density and distribution at B2) C3 and C2) C7 in stimulation and control groups. Note the difference in scale bars for B2) the left and right sides of the spinal cord and for C2) C7. Total axon length of both sides of the spinal cord at B3) C3 and C3) C7 levels. N=10 for stimulation rats, n=7 for controls.
