Improvement of neurological outcomes by allopregnanolone at 48 h after MCAO does not involve PR. A, Reduction in infarct volume by allopregnanolone. Two-way ANOVA revealed a significant effect of allopregnanolone treatment (P < 0.01) but no influence of PR genotype for total, cortical, and subcortical infarct volumes. ***, P < 0.001; **, P < 0.01; *, P < 0.05 as compared with the corresponding control group. B, Infarct areas on successive brain sections of PR+/+ and PR−/− mice. ***, P < 0.001; **, P < 0.01; *, P < 0.05 as compared with the corresponding sections of allopregnanolone-treated mice. C, Reduction of edema by allopregnanolone (means ± sem) in both PR+/+ and PR−/− mice. Two-way ANOVA (PR genotype × treatment) showed a significant effect of treatment (P < 0.001) but no effect of PR genotype. **, P < 0.01; *, P < 0.05 as compared with corresponding control group by Newman-Keuls tests. D, The time mice remained on a rotarod. ***, P < 0.001, *, P < 0.05 compared with preischemia performance; ##, P < 0.01 as indicated. Data represent means ± sem; n = 6–8 for vehicle- and allopregnanolone-treated mice.
