Fig. 3From: Intrathecal triamcinolone acetonide exerts anti-inflammatory effects on Lewis rat experimental autoimmune neuritis and direct anti-oxidative effects on Schwann cellsFluoroMyelin staining of the sciatic nerve. a Representative pictures and statistical analysis of FluoroMyelin staining for sciatic nerve transverse sections of rats (n = 5/group) treated with triamcinolone (TRIAM) 0.3 and 0.6 mg/kg and NaCl-treated animals, showing massive demyelination for NaCl-treated rats and preservation of myelin for triamcinolone-treated groups (b, mean values and SD are depicted, ***p < 0.0001) at day 23 p.i. No effect on demyelination was found on day 18 p.i. (experiments repeated twice). The experiment was performed once for day 23 p.i. Scale bars indicate 100 μmBack to article page
