CTs improved the BBB function in OGD/R-injured NVU model. (A,B) The numbers of survival BMECs and astrocytes were detected by trypan blue stain.The values were expressed as cells/cm2 (n = 4). (C) TEER value was measured using a Millicell ERS-2 Voltohmmeter. The values were calculated according to the corresponding formula, and were expressed as Ω × cm2 (n = 4). (D) Pe of SF was calculated according to the corresponding methods. Pe were expressed as × 10−6cm/s (n = 4). The detection results showed CTs had an effect of protecting BBB function from OGD/R injury. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. **P < 0.01 vs. Control group; #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 vs. OGD2h/R24h group. BMECs, brain microvascular endothelial cells; TEER, transepithelial electrical resistance; Pe, permeability coefficient; SF, sodium fluorescein; CTs, cryptotanshinone.
