Figure 2. Adult striatal neuronal damage greater than pediatric.
Representative fluorescent photomicrographs of striatal neurons in adult mice following 6 min cardiac arrest (A) and 8 min cardiac arrest (B) and pediatric mice following 6 min cardiac arrest (C) and 8 min cardiac arrest (D) and stained with FluoroJade B 3 days later. E) Quantification of ischemic neurons in the striatum 3 days after CA/CPR, indicating significantly less injured neurons in pediatric mice that underwent 6 min cardiac arrest. * P < 0.05
