Figure 14From: Bilateral elevation of interleukin-6 protein and mRNA in both lumbar and cervical dorsal root ganglia following unilateral chronic compression injury of the sciatic nerve Results of interleukin (IL)-6 mRNA staining density in dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Results of staining density for IL-6 mRNA in lumbar (L-DRG) and cervical (C-DRG) dorsal root ganglia removed from naive rats (naive) and those subjected to chronic constriction injury (CCI) for short (3 days) and late (14 days) periods of survival. Measurement by image analysis system was carried out in large, medium, and small neuronal bodies of ipsilateral (ipsi) and contralateral (contra) DRG. +Significant difference (P<0.05) compared with naive rats.Back to article page
