Animals | Stroke models | Time of administration | Routes of injection | Time point of observations | Outcomes | Mechanisms | Refs |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
C57BL/6 mice | 1 h MCAO | 0.5 h before or 6 h after MCAO |
Intravenous injection with IVIg or alone | 72 h after MCAO | Reduced brain infarction size, neurological deficit and mortality | Reduced deposition of C3b and downregulated excessive TLR2 and p-JNK1 expression in the brain | [400] |
C57BL/6 mice & CD rats |
1 h MCAO (mice) & 1.5 h MCAO (rats) | 1 h or 6 h after MCAO | Intravenous injection | 24 h and 7 days after MCAO | Reduced infarct volumes and improved clinical scores | Reduced blood-brain barrier damage, edema formation, and inflammation | [366] |
Sprague-Dawley rats | pMCAO or thromboembolic stroke |
2 h or 4 h after MCAO | Intravenous injection with tPA or alone | 24 h after MCAO | Reduced intracranial hemorrhage and neurological scores | Not studied | [428] |
C57Bl/6 mice | 0.5 h MCAO or pMCAO | 0 h, 3 h, 6 h, or 18 h after MCAO | Intravenous injection | 48 h and 7 days after MCAO | Reduced brain infarct volumes and CD45+ cell infiltration in the brain | Not studied | [367] |
CD1 mice | 2 h MCAO | Immediately after ischemia | Intravenous injection | 48 h after MCAO | Attenuated general and focal neurological deficits | Reduced TNF-a, IL-18, ICAM-1 and P-selectin mRNA expression and microglia activation; Enhanced IL-6 and IL-10 mRNA expression | [369] |
C57BL/6 | 0.5 h MCAO | 15 min after ischemia | Intravenous injection | 4 days after MCAO | Reduced general and focal neurological deficit scores and neuronal degeneration | Reduced CD45+ cell infiltration in the brain | [33] |
CD1 mice | 2 h MCAO | 15 min after MCAO | Intravenous injection | 48 h after MCAO | Reduced infarct volume and neuronal death | Did not affect astrocyte response | [364] |
Wistar rats | 1 h MCAO | Just before MCAO | Intravenous injection | 48 h after MCAO | Reduced infarct volume and leukocyte infiltration in the brain | Not studied | [429] |
