Fig. 4. The histological assessment using cresyl violet staining after ischemic injury. Atlas of rat brain mainly presents the corpus callosum, cerebral cortex (a) and striatum (b). Cresyl violet staining indicated that severe cell loss was founded in the 24 hr MCAO group whereas more healthy and round cell bodies in striatum and cortex were observed in MCAO with DHA treatment group. a: cortex, b: striatum, NC: normal control group, EC: experimental control; reperfusion 24 hr after MCAO injury, DHA: DHA treatment and reperfusion 24 hr after MCAO injury.
