The neuroprotective effects of NDP-MSH on neurological functions, brain water content, and blood-brain barrier permeability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Treatment with NDP-MSH significantly improved neurological deficits (a and b) and reduced brain water content (c) at 24 and 72 h, as well as decreased EB extravasation at 24 h after ICH (d). n = 6 for each group. Brain sections were divided into five parts: ipsilateral basal ganglia (ipsi-BG), contralateral basal ganglia (contra-BG), ipsilateral cortex (ipsi-CX), contralateral cortex (contra-CX), and cerebellum. #P < 0.05 vs sham; *P < 0.05 vs vehicle and NDP-MSH (1.5 μg)
