The effects of Sino on the activation of astrocytes and the expression of astrocytic DRD2, CRYAB, and p-STAT3 after OGD induction in vitro. a The morphology changes of astrocytes labeled with GFAP. b Multi-immunofluorescence staining for CRYAB, DRD2, and p-STAT3 in astrocytes after OGD induction. Scale bar = 20 μm (a, b). c–g Western blots and quantitative analysis of GFAP, DRD2, p-STAT3, and CRYAB expression. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5). *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 vs. sham group; ^# p < 0.05 and ^## p < 0.01 vs. the indicated groups
