AIH reduces MMP-9, IL-1R, TNFR, and TLR protein levels in the infarcted brain. (a) Western blot analysis of protein expression of MMP-9, IL-1R, TNFR, and TLR in the sham, MCAO, NT, HT(1.0), and HT(0.5) groups. β-Actin was used as an internal reference. (b) Optical density analysis of MMP-9, IL-1R, TNFR, and TLR. All values are the mean ± SEM. compared to the MCAO group, # compared to the NT group, and & compared to the HT(0.5) group.
