Figure 5:
Effect of post-stroke IGF-1 treatment on vinculin expression (A) 1d post stroke: Photomicrographs of vinculin immunostained representative sections from the ischemic cortex and striatum of control (i,ii), IGF-1 treated (iii,iv) and IGF-1+JB-1 treated (v,vi) animals. Histograms depict mean and SEM of the density of vinculin staining in each group in the ischemic and non-ischemic hemisphere. (B) 5d after stroke: Photomicrographs of vinculin immunostained representative sections from the ischemic cortex and striatum of control (i,ii), IGF-1 treated (iii,iv) and IGF-1+JB-1 treated (v,vi) animals. Histograms depict mean and SEM of the density of vinculin staining in each group in the ischemic and non-ischemic hemisphere. N = 4-6 in each group. *: p<0.05. Bar: 100 um
