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

<table>Immunohistochemical localization of cortical NADPH oxidase subunit Nox2 in the stroke-affected cortex (b), (d) and the contralateral mirror image ((a), (c)), in vehicle control ((a), (b)) and apocynin- ((c), (d)) treated rats.  Micrographs taken from the core infarct region 3 days after stroke show a reduction in Nox2 positive cells following apocynin treatment (d) compared with vehicle control (b).  Scale bar = 50 <i><i>μ</i></i>m. </table>
