Nerve Regenerative Effects of GABA-B Ligands in a Model of Neuropathic Pain
Figure 1
PSL experimental model induces neurodegeneration of peripheral nerves. (a) Image of the partial ligation of the right sciatic nerve. (b) Toluidine blue stained semithin cross-section of sham sciatic nerve in which normal myelinated fibers are appreciable. (c) Toluidine blue stained semithin cross-section of a ligated sciatic nerve showing signs of massive neurodegeneration. Scale bar 20 μm.
