Cellular apoptosis at 3 days after reperfusion (n = 8). Representative TUNEL staining and the number of TUNEL positive cells. Compared with MCAO group, the cellular apoptosis was reduced in EA + MCAO group. When compared with EA + MCAO group, the cellular apoptosis was increased in α-BGT + EA + MCAO group. Intraperitoneal injection of PHA-543,613 reduced TUNEL positive cells when compared with MCAO groups. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 vs. MCAO group, &P < 0.05 vs. EA + MCAO group; Bar = 20 μm
