Protein expression of TNF-α 24 hours after transient MCAO in different groups. (a) Representative immunoblots of TNF-α in the right cerebral hemisphere of different groups 24 hours after transient MCAO. (b) Semiquantitative analysis of protein expression of TNF-α. Data are expressed as means ± SEM ( ). , compared with the control group. The relative expression of TNF-α was significantly inhibited by MEA pretreatment.
