Reduced Renshaw Recurrent Inhibition after Neonatal Sciatic Nerve Crush in Rats

Figure 5

Recurrent inhibition in 5-day-old tibial nerve crush rats. (a) Illustration of the tibial nerve crush site and the relation to the recording and testing nerves. (b-c) Raw traces of the recorded MSR from either LG-S (a) or MG (b) in different condition-test stimulus interval of 0, 4, and 15 ms from either sham control rat (upper traces) or sciatic nerve crush rat (lower traces). (d-e) Recurrent inhibitory curves illustrate the amount (mean ± SEM) of recurrent inhibition (RI) of monosynaptic reflexes (MSR) in different condition-test stimulus interval. **𝑃<0.01 and ***𝑃<0.001 in comparison with the sham control rats.
