Stroke Status Evoked Adhesion Molecule Genetic Alterations in Astrocytes Isolated from Stroke-Prone Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats and the Apigenin Inhibition of Their Expression

Figure 2

Effects of TNF-α and apigenin on VCAM-1 protein expression levels in astrocytes isolated from WKY/IZM and SHRSP/IZM. The astrocytes isolated from WKY/IZM and SHRSP/IZM were incubated with TNF-α (10 ng/mL) for 24 hours. Levels of VCAM-1 protein were determined by Western blot analysis.
