Figure 5From: Transplanted astrocytes derived from BMP- or CNTF-treated glial-restricted precursors have opposite effects on recovery and allodynia after spinal cord injuryNG2 immunoreactivity in GDACNTF-transplanted dorsal column injuries. (a) Transplanted hPAP+ GDAsCNTF (arrowheads) at 8 days post injury/transplantation. (b) The same slide stained for NG2 (green) showing that the transplanted cells (arrowheads) show immunoreactivity for NG2. (c) Co-localization (yellow) of NG2 and hPAP immunoreactivity in regions containing higher densities of GDAsCNTF (arrowheads). In general, regions of the injury site that contained higher densities of hPAP+ GDAsCNTF had a higher density of NG2 immunoreactivity. Scale bars 50 μm.Back to article page
