Figure 9.

(A) Brain infarction size in the TFF3^−/− groups and WT groups on HS diet and LS diet (Tff3^−/− HS N = 5, Tff3^−/− LS N = 6, WT HS N = 6, WT LS N = 6). (B) Typical brain infarction in groups after 60 min of transitory middle cerebral artery occlusion (toMCAO) in all experimental groups. In all groups, toMCAO induced cerebral infarction. Sections were stained with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC). Healthy tissue is of brick-red color, while the infarcted tissue, lacking the mitochondrial enzymes necessary for the transformation of TTC, remains white.
