Figure 1.

Pretreatment with single dose (800 mg/kg) oral administration of GGA reduced stroke severity at 24 h after perfusion following 2 h MCAO. A. Representative images of TTC staining. B. Brain infarct volumes were quantified (mean ± SEM, n=6). C. Neurological scores of rats in sham, GGA-ischemia and vehicle-ischemia group at 24 h perfusion after MCAO, respectively (mean ± SEM, n=6). D. Laser Doppler measurements revealed regional cerebral blood flow of different groups upon middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion. #P<0.05 versus sham group; *P<0.05 versus vehicle-ischemia group; ##P<0.01 versus sham group; **P<0.01 versus vehicle-ischemia group.
