Figure 5

Effects of post-conditioning ischemia time on UCP2 immunoreactivity in the hippocampal CA1 area. Confocal microscope images of UCP2 immunoreactivity of A: control group; B: D3 group (3 days post-ischemia); C: D6 group (6 days post-ischemia). D: Bar graph of fluorescence intensities of UCP2 staining (mean ± SEM, n = 4 animals). Significant differences were determined by repeated measures ANOVA plus Tukey's test. ** P < 0.05 compared to Control or D6. Scale bar E, F, G = 50 μm.
