Fig. 3

Skin-derived precursors Schwann cells had an effect on restoring erectile function of bilateral cavernous nerve injury rats. A-D Representative ICP of sham group, BCNI rats treated with PBS, SKP-SCs and primary SCs respectively. The black bars means the 50 s of electrical stimulation. E The ratio of maximal ICP to MAP. The values depict as the mean ± standard deviation from 5 animals per group. ***p < 0.001; the student’s unpaired t-test was used for two-group comparisons; multiple-group comparisons were carried out by one-way ANOVA followed by the S–N-K test. ICP: intracavernous pressure; BCNI: bilateral cavernous nerve injury; PBS: phosphate buffered saline; SKP-SCs: skin-derived precursors Schwann cells; SCs: Schwann cells; MAP: mean arterial blood pressure
