ARQ-092, which is an inhibitor of activated AKT, promoted axon function recovery when applied as a pre-treatment and as a post-treatment. A) Pre-treatment with ARQ-092 (500 nM, dark blue) applied before OGD promoted consistent and sustained CAP area recovery. B) ARQ-092 improved CAP area recovery at 250 nM and 500 nM when compared to control CAP area recovery. C) ARQ-092 (500 nM, brown) applied after OGD promoted consistent and sustained CAP area recovery. D) ARQ-092 improved CAP area recovery at 250 and 500 nM compared to control CAP area recovery. * p <0.05 and ** p < 0.01, one-way ANOVA with Newman-Keuls post hoc test.
