Figure 9. Effects of TIIA on apoptosis-related factors after SCI.

Figure 9

The protein expression of Bcl-2 was reduced in the SCI group at 1 day and 3 days compared to the sham and sham/TIIA groups, whereas Bcl-2 was up-regulated in the SCI/TIIA group (A). The analyzed data are shown. (B) The cleaved caspase-3 expression began to increase at 1 day, peaked at 3 days and quickly reduced to a lower level at 7 days after SCI. However, TIIA treatment decreased the cleaved caspase-3 (C). The analyzed data are shown (D). Bars represent means ± SEM. *p<0.05 vs. sham group, # p<0.05 vs. SCI group.
