Percentage of axons observed at the epicenter and caudal stump of SCI rats after therapeutic intervention. The percentage was obtained from the total number of axons found at the same level in sham-operated rats. Animals treated either with scar removal + INDP (SR + INDP), or INDP alone presented a significant increase in the percentage of serotoninergic (a) and catecholaminergic (b) fibers. *p < 0.05, versus PBS-I, **p < 0.01 versus PBS-I, and p < 0.05 versus INDP. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey–Kramer post hoc. Each bar represents the mean ± SD of 4 rats. PBS-I PBS immunization, INDP immunization with neural derived peptide
