TT reduced the influx of water and EB dye after SCI. a An SCI model was generated with an NYU Impactor (10 g × 20 cm). b Representative views of an excised T10 cord. c Representative views of EB dye permeabilized into excised spinal cord tissue after SCI. d Representative fluorescent images showing EB dye extravasation(scale bar = 200 µm). e Quantification of water content in the S (sham-operated), M (SCI) and TM (SCI + TT) groups; columns represent the mean ± SD (n = 5). f Quantification of EB dye in the tissue (µg/g) (n = 5). g Quantification of the fluorescence intensity (n = 5). #p < 0.05 for the M group versus the S group, *p < 0.05 for the TM group versus the M group. (#p, *p < 0.05; ##p, **p < 0.01; ###p, ***p < 0.001)
