Immunoreactivity of thermal K2P channels in lumbar dorsal root ganglia of rats. a Image shows TRAAK immunoreactivity (TRAAK-ir) in a L5 DRG section from an adult rat. b Overlay histograms show size distribution of TRAAK-ir positive (red bars, n = 890 cells) and total cells (open bars, n = 3178 cells). c Image shows TREK-1 immunoreactivity (TREK-1-ir) in a L5 DRG section from an adult rat. d Overlay histograms show size distribution of TREK-1-ir positive (red bars, n = 574 cells) and total cells (open bars, n = 2430 cells). e Image shows TREK-2 immunoreactivity (TREK-2-ir) in a L5 DRG section from an adult rat. f Overlay histograms show size distribution of TREK-2-ir positive (red bars, n = 630 cells) and total cells (open bars, n = 2928 cells). g Mean diameters of cells being positive to TRAAK-ir (1st bar, n = 890 positive cells), TREK-1-ir (2nd bar, n = 574 positive cells) and TREK-2-ir (3rd bar, n = 630 positive cells). h Percent of cells being positive of TRAAK-ir (1st bar, n = 8 sections), TREK-1-ir (2nd bar, n = 7 sections) and TREK-2-ir (3rd bar, n = 8 sections). Data in G and H represent Mean ± SEM, ***p < 0.001
