Photomicrography of the expression of Basic Protein Myelin in spinal cord. (a) Control group. (b) Fibrin glue group (FG). (c) PPN group, rostral zone of the SC. (d) PPN + BMSCs group, rostral zone of the SC. (e) PPN group, caudal zone of the SC. (f) PPN + BMSCs group, caudal zone of the SC. A greater quantity of PBM-positive fibers can be observed in panels (c) to (f) (white arrows, Alexa 488, green color) in contrast to panels (a) and (b). All the tissue was contrasted with propidium iodide (nuclei red color). Calibration bar 20 μm.
