Figure Lengend Snippet: Double immunofluorescence labeling showing α2C-AR- and TRPV1-immmunoreactivity in the spinal cord dorsal horn of one vehicle-treated and one RTX-treated rat. Representative confocal images showing α2C-AR- and TRPV1-immunoreactivities in the spinal dorsal horn of one vehicle- and one RTX-treated rat. All images are single confocal optical sections. Scale bar, 100 μm. Inset: high-magnification images (scale bar = 10 μm) showing the distribution of α2C-AR- and TRPV1-immunoreactivity in the lamina I and II.
Article Snippet: Sections intended for the labeling of TRPV1 and α 2A -AR were incubated in a mixture of primary antibodies (guinea pig anti-TRPV1, dilution: 1:1000; and rabbit anti-α 2A -AR, dilution 1:100, Neuromics, Minneapolis, MN) for 2 hr at room temperature and overnight at 4°C.
Techniques: Immunofluorescence, Labeling
