EA treatment rescues apoptotic neuronal death upon MCAO. (A) Representative micrographs of H&E staining, Nissl staining and TUNEL staining (scale bar=100 μm for H&E staining and Nissl staining; scale bar=50 μm for TUNEL staining). EA treatment increased the number of viable neurons and decreased the number of TUNEL-positive neurons after MCAO. (B) Quantitation of Nissl-stained neurons. (C) Quantitation of TUNEL-positive neurons. (n=5, and error bars represent mean ±SD. *** P<0.001, vs. the Sham group; ### P<0.001, vs. the MCAO group; &&& P<0.001, vs. the EA+MCAO group).
