tDCS decreased the level of inflammatory factors induced by MCAO operation in CIP. The quantification of IL-6 (a), IL-1β (b), TNF-α (c) and IL-10 (d) in CIP. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM from three independent experiments, and representative images are shown. ^**P < 0.01, MCAO + Sham vs Control + Sham; ^##P < 0.01 and ^#P < 0.05, MCAO + tDCS vs Control + tDCS; ^&&P < 0.01, MCAO + Sham vs MCAO + tDCS
