Low-Dose Taxol Promotes Neuronal Axons Extension and Functional Recovery after Spinal Cord Injury

Figure 6

Tuj1⁺ cells in the injury areas following SCI after a low-dose Taxol treatment. (a) The low-dose Taxol group shows significant advantages as compared to the non-Taxol group in terms of the number of Tuj1-stained positive cells and axonal extension. Red, Tuj1; Green, GFAP; Blue, DAPI. Scale: 100 μm. (b) Statistics for neurons in injury areas in the 3 groups. p <0.05, p <0.01, p <0.001. (c) Statistics of axonal length in the injury areas in the 3 groups. p <0.05, p <0.01, p <0.001.
