Injection of NMDA does not damage axons. (b, c) Injection of dorsal columns with NMDA (80 mM) did not induce axonal damage in thy1-YFP2.2 shiverer (b) or control mice (c). Injection sites are labeled with microruby (red) that was co-injected with NMDA. (a) No behavioral deficits were noted on rotarod testing in either group. Data are mean ± SEM, n = 5 per group.
