Fig. 2From: Partially purified components of Uncaria sinensis attenuate blood brain barrier disruption after ischemic brain injury in micePPUS improved neurological and motor function after ischemic brain injury. Mice were intraperitoneally administered DMSO, 1 or 3 mg/kg partially purified component of Uncaria sinensis (PPUS) 30 min before ischemic insult. Quantification of (a) neurological deficit and (b) motor deficit were evaluated 24 h after photothrombotic cortical ischemia in a blinded fashion. Vestibule-motor function was assessed by a wire grip test. Data are expressed as means ± SEM (N = 5). * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01 compared with the vehicle group (One-way ANOVA)Back to article page
