Down-regulating miR-20a and up-regulating CDH1 suppress neuronal apoptosis in brain tissues of rats with cerebral I/R injury. (a). Neuronal apoptosis in hippocampus of rats observed by TUNEL staining; (b). TUNEL-positive neurons in hippocampus of rats (n = 3); a P < 0.05 compared with the sham group; b P < 0.05 compared with the inhibitor NC group; c P < 0.05 compared with the OE-NC group; d P < 0.05 compared with the miR-20a inhibitor + si-NC group; data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA while pairwise comparison after one-way ANOVA by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test
