Figure Lengend Snippet: Quantification of Mouse Renal Sensory Neurons Expressing Transient Receptor Potential Vanilliod 1 (TRPV1) Channel. (A) Number of retrogradely labelled neurons in the dorsal root ganglion at each thoracic and lumbar spinal segment in both control and 2-kidney-1-clip (2K1C) mice. (B) The percentage of retrogradely labelled neurons that were Trpv1, IB4, or Trpv1 plus IB4 positive. Note, there were no statistical differences in the number of renal sensory neurons or percentage of TRPV1, IB4, and TRPV1+IB4 between sham and 2K1C mice. *P < 0.05 Trpv1 vs. IB4 or TRPV1 plus IB4. (C) Low power image of mouse dorsal root ganglia visualized for Wheat Germ Agglutinin-647 (WGA-647, blue), TRPV1 (red), and IB4 (green). (D-G) Inset images of WGA-647 (blue), TRPV1 (red), IB4 (green), and merged. Unfilled Arrow: TRPV1-positive, IB4- renal sensory neuron; Filled Arrow: TRPV1-negative renal sensory neuron.
Article Snippet: Sections were incubated in a rabbit anti-TRPV1 antibody (1:2,000 at 4 °C for 24 h, Alomone ACC-030) and visualized with donkey anti-rabbit AlexaFluor 555 (1:250 at 4 °C for 24 h, ThermoFisher).
