Analysis of immune cell infiltration into the infarct region 72 h, 7 days, and 14 days after MCAO (n = 6 of each group). Neutrophil cells in the infarct region were stained for MPO in control (a–c) and DMF treated (d–f) MCAO rats and quantified (M). T cells were stained for CD3 in control (g–i) and DMF treated (j–l) MCAO rats and quantified (N). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, Mann-Whitney U test
