Nerve Injury-Induced c-Jun Activation in Schwann Cells Is JNK Independent

Figure 4

Induction of c-Jun in Schwann cells in the in vitro cultured sciatic nerve. (a) c-Jun immunopositive areas in the rat sciatic nerve after 48 h of culturing (edge of nerve to the right). Scale bar = 500 μm. (b) c-Jun immunoreactivity in rat sciatic nerve sections after culturing for 10 min to 48 h in vitro. The immunopositive nuclei are expressed as a percentage of the total number of nuclei in the nerve sections. Mean values ± SEM, 𝑛=6. ^∗𝑃<0.05, and ^∗∗∗𝑃<0.001.
