Figure 5

Administration of recombinant IL-1β or absence of IL-1β alters numbers of corticospinal tract fibers. (A), (B) Representative micrographs of the area of the spinal cord between the corticospinal tract (CST) end and 5 mm caudal to the lesion center (LC). Higher magnification panels highlight the area between the end of the CST and the LC and one selected area (recombinant IL-1β (rIL-1β)) to four selected areas (IL-1βKO) caudal to the LC, where diaminobenzidine-positive fibers could be detected. Arrows indicate CST fibers caudal to the LC.
