Superior effect of hypoxic-preconditioned mesenchymal stem cells (HP-MSCs) on lesion size and functional outcome in a mouse model of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. A, Overview of study design. B, Representative images of ipsilateral tissue loss visualized by hematoxylin and eosin staining in SHAM-control mice or HI-injured mice intranasally treated with either vehicle (VEH), normoxic-preconditioned MSCs (NP-MSCs), or HP-MSCs at 10 days post-HI. C, Quantification of ipsilateral tissue loss (%) at 28 days post-HI. D, Non-impaired forepaw preference at 28 days post-HI; SHAM: n=18, HI-VEH: n=21, HI–NP-MSC (C): n=23; NP-MSC (D): n=22, HI–HP-MSC: n=19. Data represent mean±SD. ###P<0.001, ####P<0.0001 significance relative to HI-VEH; *P<0.05 HI–HP-MSC vs HI–NP-MSC.
