(A) Representative photomicrographs of TTC-stained 1 mm thick coronal slices illustrating the extent of the cerebral infarct obtained 3 days post-hemorrhagic shock (HS) or sham operation for the (UCCAO^-), the (UCCAO^-+HS^-+WBC^-) (□), (UCCAO⁺+HS^-+WBC^-) (◼), the (UCCAO^-+HS⁺+WBC^-) (▥), the (UCCAO^-+HS⁺+WBC⁺) (▧), the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC^-) (▩), and the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC⁺) (▤). (B) Infarct volumes (mm³) calculated from TTC-stained 1 mm thick coronal sections throughout the extent of the infarct following an HS or a sham operation for different groups of rats. (C) maximal angle (degrees) and (D) mNSS score obtained 1 day before a hemorrhagic shock (HS) and 3 days after a HS for the (UCCAO^-+HS^-+WBC^-) (□), the (UCCAO⁺+HS^-+WBC^-) (◼) the (UCCAO^-+HS⁺+WBC^-) (▥), the (UCCAO^-+HS⁺+WBC⁺) (▧), the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC^-) (▩), and the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC⁺) (▤). Each bar represents the mean±S.E.M. of 8 rats. *P<0.05, the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC^-) group vs. the (UCCAO^-+HS^-+WBC^-) group; ⁺P<0.05, the (UCCAO^-+HS⁺+WBC⁺) vs the (UCCAO⁺+HS⁺+WBC^-) group.
