Cell survival and proliferation were not affected by rTMS. a Detection of apoptosis with terminal dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay after receiving rTMS stimulation. No apoptotic signals were detected after rTMS stimulation with different frequencies. n = 5 per group. b Representative images of EdU staining post rTMS stimulation. c Quantification of the proportion of BrdU+/GFAP+ cells. n = 5 per group. d Detection of cell viability with CCK-8 experiment kit after receiving rTMS stimulation. rTMS stimulation with different frequencies did not affect astrocytes viability. CCK-8 experiment was repeated for three independent times and n = 5 per group. Scale bar: 50 μm. Data are represented as mean ± SD
