Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Increases in the Uninjured Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons in Selective Spinal Nerve Ligation Model

Table 2.

Coexpression of tkA mRNA with BDNF mRNA in L4 DRG 14 d after L5 spinal nerve ligation

BDNF/trkA trkA/BDNF
Ipsilateral 28.1  ± 3.8%* 90.3  ± 3.3%
Contralateral 12.1  ± 1.0% 92.9  ± 7.1%
  • X/Y means the percentage of X mRNA-expressing cells in Y mRNA-expressing cells.

  • ↵* p < 0.05 versus contralateral side by paired t test (n = 4).
