Fig. 1From: Delayed and repeated intranasal delivery of bone marrow stromal cells increases regeneration and functional recovery after ischemic stroke in miceExperimental timeline. Focal ischemic stroke was induced in adult male mice on “day 0”. Three days after stroke, a total volume of 100 μl of BMSC suspension (~ 1 × 106 cells) or control media was administered via the intranasal route at 3, 4, 5, and 6 days after stroke. Starting on the same day as BMSC administration, all mice received daily BrdU injections intraperitoneally (i.p) until the day of euthanasia. Laser-Doppler scanning was performed 21 days after stroke to measure changes in the local blood flow in penumbra. The adhesive removal test of sensorimotor function was performed at 7 and 14 days after stroke. Immunohistochemistry was performed at 14 days after stroke to analyze regenerationBack to article page
