TPME implant enhances axon regeneration and remyelination. (A) Immunofluorescence images of separate groups at 8 weeks. Neurofilament (NF, green) and myelin basic protein (MBP) antibodies were utilized to stain the spinal cords (MBP, red). Scale bar = 500 μm. (B) Quantitative analysis of NF and MBP immunofluorescence intensity in spinal cord tissue (n = 3). (C) Protein expression of NF, GAP43, and MBP. (D) Quantitative analysis of NF, MBP, and GAP43 in Western blotting assays (n = 3). (E) Protein expression of Arg-1 and iNOS. (F) Quantitative analysis of Arg-1 and iNOS in Western blotting assays (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001)
