Effects of Lenti-ACE2-EPC infusion on infarct volume and neurologic deficit score. A, Representative pictures of Fluoro-J staining 7 days after EPC infusion. Scale bar: 2 mm. Summarized data on neurologic deficit scores (B) and infarct volume (C). Transfusion of Lenti-ACE2-EPCs has better efficacy than Lenti-GFP-EPCs in decreasing infarct volume and improving neurologic deficit. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 versus vehicle; †P<0.05, ††P<0.01 versus Lenti-GFP-EPCs; #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 versus R-A- mice, n=6/group.
