(A) Experimental timeline.
(B) Representative MRI images at different coronal levels.
(C) At day 1 after stroke, before any treatment, the 2 groups of animals
have similar infarct sizes and distributions.
(D–F) Post-stroke ISP treatment leads to enhanced general
locomotor function measured by automated open field chambers for 1 h (D),
increased fine motor function measured by the adhesive tape removal test (E),
and improved cognitive function measured by Barnes maze at 4 w after stroke
(F).
*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. Two-way RM ANOVA for (D) and (E)
and Student’s t test for (F). Each data point represents an individual
mouse; data from 1 cohort.
