Axonal outgrowth was measured based on the NF-m staining. For tracking individual neurites, the semi-automated Fiji application plugin [39] NeuriteJ [40] was used. The mean length of neurites was measured and then averaged for ten of the most extended neurites per DRG, as described elsewhere [37]. Results are presented as a mean length of neurites calculated based on nine DRG per condition.
