CBL treatment reduces astrogliosis at the site of injury following cervical hemi-section. a1–a3 Negative control group (a2 is a higher magnification of a1) showing resting astrocytes with fine cytoplasmic process and mild GFAP expression. b1–b3 CI group (b2 is a higher magnification of b1) showing stimulated astrocytes with bold cytoplasmic process and strong GFAP expression. c1–c3 CI + 7 days CBL group (c2 is high magnification of c1) showing astrocytes with moderate GFAP expression and moderate cytoplasmic process. d1–d3 CI + 21 days CBL group (d2 is a higher magnification of d1) showing astrocytes with fine cytoplasmic process and mild GFAP expression. A Quantification of GFAP immune expression density, data are expressed as mean ± SD. n = 6–8, one-way ANOVA test is used followed with post hoc Tukey test, ns non-significant, **p value < 0.01. ****p value < 0.0001.
