Figure Lengend Snippet: Remote ischemia conditioning suppressed Aβ production in the frontal–parietal cortex of OVX APP/PS1 rats. (A) Representative photographs of BACE1 (green) and RECA1 (red). Quantitative analysis of the fluorescence intensity of BACE1+ staining in the hippocampal CA1 (a1) and cortex (a2). Scale bar 50 μm, magnification 40×. (B) Representative photographs of ADAM10 (α‐Secretase) immunofluorescence staining (green). DAPI counterstaining of the nucleus. Quantitative analysis of the fluorescent intensity of ADAM10 in the cortex (b1), and hippocampal CA1 (b2). Scale bar 50 μm, magnification 40×. (C, c1–c4) Western blot analysis showed changes of nicastrin, presenilin 1, PEN2, and presenilin 2. Values are expressed as means ± SEM of determinations from each group. The typical photographs of 6E10 immunofluorescence staining (red) are shown in (D). Quantitative analysis of the fluorescent intensity of 6E10 in the cortex (d1), and hippocampal CA1 (d2). Scale bar 200 μm, magnification 10× for the left column; and scale bar 50 μm, magnification 40× for the right column. (E, F) The level of Aβ1‐42 and Aβ1‐40 in the cortex was detected by ELISA assay. N = 5–8, White Box in subfigure A. Hip CA1, hippocampal CA1.
