  1. MCAO: middle cerebral artery occlusion; IP: intraperitoneal injection; IV: intravenous injection; HI: hypoxic-ischemic; ICA: internal carotid artery; IRF: interferon regulatory factor; TLR: toll-like receptor; BBB: blood-brain barrier; Poly-IC: polycytidylic acid; Poly-ICLC: polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid; FADD: Fas-Associated protein with Death Domain; LPS: lipopolysaccharide; IRF: interferon regulatory factor; TRIF: TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-β; GDQ: gardiquimod; JNK: c-Jun N-terminal kinase; CpG-ODN: CpG-motif oligodeoxynucleotide. MCAO, 60-min ischemia, 24-h reperfusion: the mice was employed MCAO (cerebral ischemia) 60 min followed by reperfusion 24 h. 1 h/IP: mice were injected intraperitoneally with TLRs ligand 1 h prior to cerebral ischemia.
