Figure 3From: Docosahexaenoic acid improves behavior and attenuates blood–brain barrier injury induced by focal cerebral ischemia in rats Representative images of EB extravasation from rats treated with DHA or saline. Treatments were given at 1 h after 2 h of MCAo and EB was administered at 1 h before rats were sacrificed (at 5 h, 23 h and 71 h). Extensive extravasation of EB is grossly visible in the saline treated rats. Contrarily, substantial inhibition of the dye extravasation was evident in DHA-treated brains.Back to article page
