Assessment of glial reaction in the hippocampus after OE-MSC transplantation in ischemic rats. Immunohistological analyses revealed an increase of glial cells in the hippocampus of grafted animals. We found a higher number of GFAP (a and b) and Iba1 (c and d) reactive cells in hippocampi of grafted animals in comparison to sham rats (e). Each image is a representative of different animals from both groups. Scale bar: 1 mm. ; . GFAP: glial fibrillary acidic protein; Iba1: ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1.
