Figure 4From: The neuroprotective effect of post ischemic brief mild hypothermic treatment correlates with apoptosis, but not with gliosis in endothelin-1 treated ratsEffect of hypothermic treatments on the Et-1 induced infarct volume. There was no infarct volume in the S and the Sā+āH group (nā=ā7 and 4 respectively, data not shown). (A) Delaying hypothermia up to 60āminutes after the administration of Et-1 still induced enough neuroprotection to reduce the infarct volume significantly. The amount of animals in each hypothermic group was 7. *Significantly different compared to the infarct volume of the N group (nā=ā12). Ā§Significantly different from each other (pā<ā0.05). (B) shows the infarct volume for the different treatment protocols.Back to article page
