Edema formation 24 (a) and 72 h (b) after ICH Induction: Edema was assessed by means of the wet dry method in ipsi- and contralateral hemispheres. The cerebellum served as a control. Twenty-four hour after ICH induction, there was no statistical difference between ipsilateral hemispheres of FTY720 mice (n = 8) and controls (n = 7; p = 0.122). Similarly, at 72 h, no difference was found between groups (FTY720: n = 8, controls: n = 7; p = 0.914)
