Effect of N-acetyl-cysteine treatment upon the medial gastrocnemius motorneuron pool. Parasagittal sections through medial gastrocnemius motorneuron pool showing true-blue-labelled motorneurons, in a normal control rat (A), 8 weeks after L5,6 ventral rhizotomy without treatment (B), and following 8 weeks of intraperitoneal N-acetyl-cysteine treatment (750mg/kg/day) after L5,6 ventral rhizotomy (C). Note the reduced number of motorneurons in (B) and the normalised number of motorneurons and soma size in (C). Arrows indicate microglial cells. Scale bar=50μm.
