HSP27 expression at the site of lesion (SNL) in the sciatic nerve in healthy (A,C,E,G,I) and GK diabetic rats (B,D,F,H,J). (Left panels): (A) = contralateral side (14-day model) healthy rats, (C) = no nerve repair (14-day follow-up) healthy rats, (E) = immediate nerve repair (14-day follow-up) healthy rats, (G) = immediate nerve repair (7-day follow-up) healthy rats, and (I) = delayed (7 days) nerve repair (7-day follow-up) healthy rats. (Right panels): (B) = contralateral side (14-day model) GK rats, (D) = no nerve repair (14-day follow-up) GK rats, (F) = immediate nerve repair (14-day follow-up) GK rats, (H) = immediate nerve repair (7-day follow-up) GK rats, and (J) = delayed (7 days) nerve repair (7-day follow-up) GK rats. The arrows mark HSP27 expression in axon(s), and the arrowheads mark the specific Schwann cell (SC) in the images. Bar = 100 μm in all images.
