From: Macrophage depletion reduced brain injury following middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice
Macrophage depletion enhanced the microvessel density in the peri-infarct region of mice brain after MCAO. Photomicrographs show that CD31+ microvessels in the peri-infarct region of the ipsilateral striatum in Vehicle (a), PBS (b), and CLP (c) groups at 14 days after MCAO. Scale bar = 100 μm. Bar graph shows the quantification of the number of CD31+ cells in the peri-infarct region of the ipsilateral striatum (d). Data are mean ± SD, n = 4 per group. **p < 0.01, CLP vs. Vehicle or PBS
