Targeting Oxidative Stress Injury after Ischemic Stroke in Conscious Rats: Limited Benefits with Apocynin Highlight the Need to Incorporate Long Term Recovery

Figure 2

Effect of apocynin treatment on infarct area in cortex (a) and striatum (b) and total infarct volume in the cortex (c) and striatum (d) following stroke. Both infarct area and total volume were significantly reduced in the cortex following apocynin treatment, with no effect on the striatum. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 11 apocynin treated; n = 9 vehicle treated). *P < 0.05 versus vehicle control rats (ANOVA).
