Effect of GTex (30~300 mg/kg, p.o.), EGCG (10 mg/kg, p.o.), and pentoxifylline (PTX, 100 mg/kg, p.o.), on the time spent in the target quadrant in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) rats. The performance of each rat was tested 24 hours after the final training day in a probe trial (60 sec) during which the platform was removed. *P < 0.05 compared to the sham group. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 compared to I/R group (n = 6 in each group).
