Scalp Acupuncture and Treadmill Training Inhibits Neuronal Apoptosis through Activating cIAP1 in Cerebral Ischemia Rats

Figure 3

Effect of SA-T on neuronal apoptosis of the pMCAO model. (a) Quantification of TUNEL positive cells and NeuN and TUNEL double-positive cells on the 3rd day. (b) Quantification of TUNEL positive cells and NeuN and TUNEL double-positive cells on the 7th day. (c) Quantification of TUNEL positive cells and NeuN and TUNEL double-positive cells on the 14th day. Double immunofluorescence staining for TUNEL (green), NeuN (red), and nuclei-stained with DAPI (blue). Fluorescence images were captured using a fluorescence microscope (× 400). Data are presented as mean ± SEM; n = 6 per group at each time point. ^a vs. S-con group, ^b vs. M-con group, ^c vs. SA group, ^d vs. TT group.
