An Experimental Novel Study: Angelica sinensis Prevents Epidural Fibrosis in Laminectomy Rats via Downregulation of Hydroxyproline, IL-6, and TGF-β1
Figure 3
H&E staining for the epidural adhesion tissues in the laminectomy sites applied with A. sinensis (a), saline (b), and nothing (c). (a) Loose scar tissues without adherence to dura mater were found in A. sinensis group. (b), (c) Dense scar tissues adhered to dura maters were found in saline and sham group. S: spinal cord, L: laminectomy defect, D: dura mater, and EF: epidural fibrosis.
