Laminin expression increased on blood vessels following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). (A) At 6 h post MCAO, sections were stained with antibodies against anti-pan-laminin and occludin. Data are representative of results from at least five animals. Scale bar, 100 μm. (B) Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) were challenged with oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and assayed for laminin expression. *P <0.01 compared to control. (C) RT-PCR for laminin subtypes at indicated times after MCAO.
