Development of Protective Autoimmunity by Immunization with a Neural-Derived Peptide Is Ineffective in Severe Spinal Cord Injury
Figure 1
Motor recovery of spinal cord injured rats.
Animals were subjected to a moderate (A) or severe spinal cord contusion (B). The recovery of rats subjected to a complete SCT is also shown (C). In all cases, animals were treated either with A91 or PBS. Severe injuries abolished the beneficial effect induced by immunizing with A91. * Different from PBS group (p<0.05, two-way ANOVA for repeated measures). Each point represents the mean ± SD of 10 rats.
