SIRT3 Expression Decreases with Reactive Oxygen Species Generation in Rat Cortical Neurons during Early Brain Injury Induced by Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Immunohistochemistry reactivity of SIRT3 at 24 h after experimental SAH. (a) Immunohistochemistry staining results suggested that SIRT3 displayed a uniformly strong expression in the cortex of rats from the sham group (red arrows) but was significantly downregulated after experimental SAH. (b) Semiquantitative analysis revealed that immunoreactivity score of SIRT3 decreased significantly in the SAH group compared with that in the sham group. Data were shown as mean ± SEM. Number of animals: for each group and versus sham group.
