Popis: | 011/2011). The measurement of the strength of the mice was performed in the pre and post surgery through software coupled to a force transducer. The quantification of the area of cerebral infarction using 2,3,5-triphenil tetrazolium chloride was established by morphometric analysis using Image J program (NIH). The data are presented as means ± SEM. Statistical analysis was performed using Student’s t test for comparison of groups using the software Prism ® 5.0 (GraphPad, San Diego, CA, USA). p values < 0.05 were considered to be statistically significant. Results and conclusions A significant increase in the number of circulating leukocytes in the animals treated with G-CSF (= AVE + vehicle 2,550 ± 283/mm3 vs. G-CSF + AVE = 15,650 ± 1,294/ mm3, p < 0.01) was observed. The strength after surgery was significantly higher (p |
