Effects of GTex and EGCG on cerebral infarction. (a) Effect of GTex (30~300 mg/kg, p.o.) groups and EGCG (10 mg/kg, p.o.) on cerebral infarct area at 24 h after reperfusion. The pale area represents infarct tissue and the red area normal tissue. (b) Infarction area by TTC staining (n = 6 in each group). I/R: ischemia/reperfusion control group. Each vertical bar represented mean ± S.E. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 compared to I/R group. Scale bar = 1 cm.
