Fig. 1From: Non-noxious skin stimulation activates the nucleus basalis of Meynert and promotes NGF secretion in the parietal cortex via nicotinic ACh receptorsChanges in NGF concentrations in cortical perfusate in the right parietal cortex induced by brushing of the left hindlimb. NGF concentrations in cortical perfusate taken before (white column) and after (hatched column) brushing. Each column and error bar shows the mean ± SE. a Control rats without drugs (n = 6). b Rats pretreated with mecamylamine (n = 7). *p < 0.05; significant difference between the values before (baseline) and after brushingBack to article page
