Albumin Reduces Oxidative Stress and Neuronal Apoptosis via the ERK/Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway after Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Rats

Figure 1

Experimental design and animal groups. ICH: intracerebral hemorrhage; WB: western blot; IF: immunofluorescence; TUNEL: terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling; FJC: fluoro-Jade C staining; 8-OHdG: 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine; MDA: malondialdehyde; SOD: superoxide dismutase; DMSO: dimethyl sulfoxide; i.v.: intravenous injection; i.p.: intraperitoneal injection. Extra 2 rats were used for IF (albumin and HO-1 with neurons) at 72 h after ICH. Assumed the optimal dose group.
