Figure 2

Scalp acupuncture alleviated tissue damage in brains of rats with MCAO-induced brain damage. (A) TTC staining results. (B) Infarct areas, as calculated using ImageJ. (C) Brain water content was measured to evaluate the extent of edema. Results represent triplicate independent experiments and are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (n = 4–5). ##p < 0.01 (MCAO vs CON); *p < 0.05 (ACU vs MCAO).
