Effects of GFW on TUNEL positive cells in the cortex and hippocampus CA2 of hyperglycemic rats. (a), (d): normal; (b), (e): hyperglycemia; (c), (f): treated with GFW 4 g/kg of hyperglycemic rats. The arrow was showing the TUNEL positive cells. (g): bar chart of TUNEL positive cells in the cortex and hippocampus (CA1, CA2 and CA3) of normal rats, hyperglycemic rats, and hyperglycemic rats treated with GFW (1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 g/kg). ***𝑃<0.001 versus normal group. ^#𝑃<0.05, ^##𝑃<0.01, ^###𝑃<0.001 versus hyperglycemia group (𝑛=6 in each group). Scale bar = 5 𝜇m.
