Marked Effects of Tachykinin in Myositis Both in the Experimental Side and Contralaterally: Studies on NK-1 Receptor Expressions in an Animal Model
Figure 16
Expression of NK-1R (TACR1) mRNA. Serial sections of a soleus muscle specimen of the 6-week group, nonexercised side, showing an abnormal muscle fiber (asterisks). In (a), the fiber is shown to be markedly infiltrated by inflammatory cells (staining with H&E). There is NK-1R mRNA expression in this fiber (b) (arrows). No reactions are visible in the sense control (c). Bar = 25 μm.
