Figure 1. IL-1α is chronically elevated after experimental stroke in mice.
Lysates from the brains of 3 month-old male C57Bl6 mice and their sham controls were collected at 3 and 7 days after experimental stroke and assayed for IL-1α by ELISA. IL-1α was significantly elevated at 7 days post stroke compared to day 7 sham controls*p<0.05, and day 3 sham controls **p<0.01. N=3
