Figure 3

Effect of GSNO on the expression of iNOS present mainly in macrophages/microglia. Red fluorescence indicates induced higher expression of iNOS in the traumatic penumbral area of CCI+VEH brain than in the treated (CCI+GSNO) brain determined by immunohistochemistry at 72 h following CCI. Sham animal did not show any significant staining of iNOS (A). Colocalization of the expression of iNOS with ED1 as yellowish fluorescence (B) indicates that iNOS was mainly expressed in macrophages/microglia.
