Electroacupuncture Confers Antinociceptive Effects via Inhibition of Glutamate Transporter Downregulation in Complete Freund's Adjuvant-Injected Rats

<table>Double immunolabeling for GLAST (a) and GLT-1 (b) with astrocyte marker GFAP (<i>n</i> = 5). Double immunolabeling showed colocalization of both GTs with GFAP; these colocalizations were largely observed in CFA-injected rats. Small frame represents high-power merged image of GFAP and GLAST or GLT-1.
