Effect of E2 on neurogenesis after focal ischemia . ((a)-(b)) Quantification of BrdU-immunoreactive cells in the SVZ and the DG at the 5 weeks after sham-operated or MCAO rats treated with vehicle or E2. Data were presented as mean ± SEM. ; compared to vehicle. ((c)-(d)) Quantification of DCX-immunoreactive cells in SVZ and DG at the 5 weeks after sham-operated or MCAO rats treated with vehicle or E2. Data were presented as mean ± SEM. ; compared to vehicle-treated group.
