Western blot analysis to show the effect of minocycline or fluorocitrate treatment on the levels of p-NF-κB/NF-κB protein in the cortex of rats at 6 hr postsurgery. (a) Western blot assay of cleaved caspase-3 for minocycline (50 mg/kg) or fluorocitrate (50 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally three days before surgery. (b) The cleaved caspase-3 expression levels were normalized sham group. compared with the sham group. ### compared with the SAH+minocycline group. + compared with the SAH+fluorocitrate group.
