a–d Representative confocal images (a, c) and quantitative analysis of IgG extravascular deposits (b, d) in the peri-infarct cortex at 14 days. Mice were subjected to stroke and treated with either anti-Ly6G antibody, control antibody, DNase 1, or vehicle starting at 7 days (n = 6), unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test was applied with *P = 0.0392 (b), *P = 0.0384 (d). Bar = 10 μm. e–l Representative confocal images (e, g) of CD31-positive microvessels and in-vivo multiphoton microscopy images of perfused cortical capillaries with intravenously injected FITC-dextran (i, k) in the peri-infarct cortex at 14 days in mice treated with either anti-Ly6G antibody, control antibody, DNase 1, or vehicle. Bar = 40 μm (e, g) and 100 µm (i, k). Quantification of microvascular density (f, h) and perfused capillary length (j, l) for each group (n = 6), unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test was applied with *P = 0.00378 (f), *P = 0.0364 (h), *P = 0.0026 (j), *P = 0.0006 (l). Data are presented as mean ± SD. Source data underlying graph b, d, f, h, j, and l are provided as a Source Data file.
