Luoyutong Treatment Promotes Functional Recovery and Neuronal Plasticity after Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats

Figure 5

LYT (Luoyutong) induced upregulation of MAP-2 (microtubule associated protein) expression after MCAO (middle cerebral artery occlusion). Western blot detection and quantitative analysis of (a) MAP-2 expression 3 days after MCAO and (c) MAP-2 expression 14 days after MCAO. (b) Representative immunofluorescence images showing colocalization of MAP-2 (red) and NeuN (neuron-specific nuclear protein) (green) in the cortex. Blue DAPI staining indicates the nuclei. . versus Sham, versus Sham, and versus MCAO.
