Sections of the sensory cortex (zone 2) processed for the immunohistochemical demonstration of neurofilament 200 kDa. (a) Control Sham-operated WKY rats, (b) control Sham-operated SHRs, (c) control CCI SHRs, (d) CCI SHRs treated with ( )-thioctic acid 250 μmol/kg/day, (e) CCI SHRs treated with ( )-thioctic acid 125 μmol/kg/day, (f) CCI SHRs treated with (+)-thioctic acid 125 μmol/kg/day, (g) CCI SHRs treated with (−)-thioctic acid 125 μmol/kg/day, and (H) CCI SHRs treated with pregabalin 300 μmol/kg/day (h). II: zone 2 of sensory cortex. Calibration bar: 25 μm.
