Effects of EP4 receptor on neuronal apoptosis after SAH. TUNEL study showed the activation of EP4 by AE1-329 attenuated neuronal apoptosis 24 h after SAH while the inhibition of EP4 by AE3-208 showed opposite effects (a, b). Western blot analysis showed AE1-329 decreased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 24 h after SAH and AE3-208 showed opposite effects (c). Nuclear morphology was indicated by DAPI staining and DNA breaks were detected by TUNEL analyses. Bar: 25 µm. Data were expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 8, ###p < 0.001 vs. Sham, *p < 0.05 vs. SAH treated with vehicle, ***p < 0.001 vs. SAH treated with vehicle)
