Fig. 1From: Partially purified components of Uncaria sinensis attenuate blood brain barrier disruption after ischemic brain injury in micePPUS treatment reduced infarct volume after ischemic brain injury. (a) Representative photographs of coronal brain sections stained with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride in vehicle (Veh) and partially purified component of Uncaria sinensis (PPUS)-treated mice. Mice were intraperitoneally administered DMSO, 1 or 3 mg/kg PPUS 30 min before ischemic insult. White indicates the infarct area. (b) Quantification of the infarct volume 24 h after photothrombotic cortical ischemia. Data are expressed as means ± SEM (N = 5). * P < 0.05 when compared with the vehicle group (One-way ANOVA)Back to article page
