Whether frozen or paraffin-embedded sections, Tuj1 (Anti-beta III Tubulin) antibody works well to better understand the the degree of which peripheral nerves with axons undergo regeneration after Wallerian degeneration. Further, antibodies recognizing NGF receptor p75 or schawann cell marker GFAP are recommended.  

As shown in the attached file, after sciatic denervation Dct-H2B-GFP+/TuJ1+ cells disappeared from the dermis, suggesting that the dermal GFP+ cells are peripheral neurons or associated neuron-dependent precursor cells. 

Try DSMO treatments in advance, let Ab better penetrate, don't forget to wash DSMO out.
