Figure 6

Levels of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in the penumbral cytoplasm and plasma. (A) HMGB1 content in the penumbral cytoplasm 72 h after reperfusion. (B) HMGB1 concentration in plasma 72 h after reperfusion. Each value represents the mean ± SEM of five measurements. *P < 0.01 vs. MCAO, #P < 0.01 vs. EA+MCAO. (C) The relationship between the numbers of apoptotic neuronal cells and brain HMGB1 content (n = 25 pairs, r = 0.8409, P < 0.01). (D) The relationship between the numbers of apoptotic neuronal cells and plasma HMGB1 concentrations (n = 25 pairs, r = 0.7263, P < 0.01).
