Figure 2
Expression levels of inflammatory genes. Expression levels of different inflammatory genes measured by RT-PCR are shown in Figure 2 (A: CD3; B: CD 11b; C: CCL2; D: CCL5; E: TNFα; F: IL-1β). Samples were taken from the penumbra in tMCAO or corresponding region in sham animals plus corresponding contralateral regions (Sham N2 n = 9; Sham Ar n = 8; tMCAO N2 n = 12; tMCAO n = 12). All values are presented as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
