Fig. 4From: Macrophages in trigeminal ganglion contribute to ectopic mechanical hypersensitivity following inferior alveolar nerve injury in ratsChanges in TNFα expression in TG following LCCA administration following IANX. a TNFα expressed in V1/V2 in the TG on day 3 following intra-TG LCCA or Cont-LCCA administration in IANX rats or in sham-operated rats. Arrows indicate FG-labeled neurons. Arrowheads indicate TNFα immuno-products. b Changes in the relative area of TNF-α immuno-products in the TG on day 3 following intra-TG LCCA or Cont-LCCA administration in IANX rats or in sham-operated rats. Error bars indicate SEM. *p < 0.05 vs. Cont-LCCA. (n = 5 in each, one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple-comparison test)Back to article page
