MPS affects brain volumes. (A and a) A set of 37-cross sections of the whole brain except olfactory bulb and cerebellum was considered for volumetric analysis. Sub-panel a adopted from Paxinos and Watson (1997). (B) Stress-only rats (N = 7) showed a non-significant trend towards larger brain volume. (C) Tissue loss following focal cortical ischemia in the primary motor cortex (M1). (Left panel) Estimate of the percent damage for stroke-only and stress + stroke rats in M1. (Right panel) Schematic illustration of ischemic lesion extent. Dark and light gray areas indicate the largest and smallest size of ischemic lesion, respectively. Atlas plate (# 11, Bregma 1.70 mm) adopted from Paxinos and Watson (1997).
