Rotation frequencies of UVN and Sham rats in the open field. (A) Illustration of body axis rotation (left part), arena rotation (middle part) and illustration of the contralateral and ipsilateral hemispheres regarding the lesion and turning direction (right part). A rotation in a counterclockwise (CCW) direction is a ipsilesional rotation and vice versa for clockwise (CW) rotations. Body axis rotation is a method used to quantify if the rat is spinning around its own axis. Arena rotation is suitable for when animal walks around in circles (middle part). (B) Curves illustrating the kinetics of body axis rotation frequencies on the intact side (contralesional rotations) of UVN (red) and Sham (black) group. (C) Curves illustrating the kinetics of arena rotation frequencies on the intact side (contralesional rotations) of UVN (red) and Sham (black) group. (D) Curves illustrating the kinetics of body axis rotation frequency on the lesioned side (ipsilesional rotation) of UVN (red) and Sham (black) group. (E) Curves illustrating the kinetics of Arena rotation frequency on the lesioned side (ipsilesional rotations) of UVN (red) and Sham (black) group. Data represent mean ± SEM; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. A significant difference from the pre-operative value is indicated by * in black for the SHAM group. A significant difference from the pre-operative value is indicated by * in red for the UVN group. A significant difference between the SHAM and the UVN group is indicated with * in blue.
