Effects of miR-155 on apoptosis following cerebral I/R injury in mice. (A) TUNEL staining (magnification, ×200) demonstrated the neuronal apoptosis following cerebral I/R injury (n=5). Apoptotic cell death was detected using a TUNEL staining kit. The green staining indicated TUNEL-positive cells and the blue staining indicated cell nucleus. (B) Western blot analysis of the caspase-3 protein levels in mouse brains at 24 h following middle cerebral arterial occlusion (n=5). Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. **P<0.01, ***P<0.001; ###P<0.001 vs. sham. miR, microRNA; I/R, ischemia reperfusion; miR-155−/−, miR-155 inhibitor; miR-155+/+, miR-155 mimics; TUNEL, terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling.
