Immunization with a Neural-Derived Peptide Protects the Spinal Cord from Apoptosis after Traumatic Injury
Figure 2
Reduction of apoptosis by A91 immunization as revealed by TUNEL assay in the injury site. Seven days after SC injury. (a) Rostral region 2 mm from injury epicenter. *Different from A91-immunized rats (; Mann-Whitney test). (b) Caudal region 2 mm from injury epicenter. *Different from A91-immunized rats (; Mann-Whitney test). A91 immunization induced a significant reduction in apoptosis. Bars represent the mean ± SD of 4 rats.
