Kruskal–Wallis showed an effect of lesion in WT animals ( p = 0.004) and NLRP3 KO ( p = 0.000), with a near-significant difference ( p = 0.057) on the ipsilateral sides of WT and KO mice ( Figure 2 a, left).
Kruskal–Wallis showed an effect of lesion in WT animals ( p = 0.004) and NLRP3 KO ( p = 0.000), with a near-significant difference ( p = 0.057) on the ipsilateral sides of WT and KO mice ( Figure 2 a, left).
The Clec7a microglial marker presented a similar pattern and Kruskal–Wallis test showed a significant effect of lesion in WT ( p = 0.007) and KO (0.003) mice; Mann–Whitney U-test confirmed a significant increase in the ipsilateral side of WT animals ( p = 0.002) and an almost significant difference in the contralateral side with the WT naïve group ( p = 0.058).
Gfap mRNA levels were analyzed by non-parametric test and Kruskal–Wallis showed a significant effect of lesion in WT ( p = 0.013) and KO ( p = 0.000), with a strong trend towards higher basal levels in KO than in WT ( p = 0.059).
