Figure 5.

Post-stroke combined treatment with PFT-α and posiphen increased the total migrating number of YFP+ cells adjacent to the infarct core at 4 weeks following MCAo, as compared with the vehicle-treated control group. The total YFP+ cells were calculated using multiple sections following stereological principles described in the Methods Section. Mean+SEM. * indicates p < 0.05, Student’s t test; n = 7 per group. Scale bar = 100 µm. MCAo: middle cerebral artery occlusion; PFT-α: pifithrin-α; SEM: standard error of the mean; YFP: yellow fluorescent protein.
