The disparity in the infarct size and neuralgic function in 4 mice strains with MCAO. The left panel: representative coronal brain sections from 4 strains of mice (ICR, KM, BALB/c, and C57BL/6). Sections were stained with 2‐3‐5‐triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). Data are expressed as mean ± SD and analyzed by one‐way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett's t‐test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus ICR; #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus KM; P < 0.05, P < 0.01 versus BALB/c.
