From: Flow cytometry analysis of immune and glial cells in a trigeminal neuralgia rat model

Numbers and proportions of immune-related cells in the TREZ and TG. (a) Flow contour plot of immune-related cells in the TREZ and TG in the two groups of rats. (b) The ratios of CD11b+ cells in the TREZ and TG of the TN group were lower than those of the sham group. (c–e) The ratios of macrophages (CD45highCD11b+) and lymphocytes (CD45+CD11b−) in the TREZ and TG of the TN group were higher than those in the sham group. The difference in the proportions and numbers of microglia (CD45lowCD11b+) between the two groups was not statistically significant. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ns: not significant, as determined by two-tailed Student’s t-test. SSC side scatter.
