Figure Lengend Snippet: NSC Sox2 transplantation decreases the expression of proinflammatory factors and increases the expression of anti-inflammatory factors and neurotrophic factors in hippocampus. (A, B) ELISA results of TNF-α (A) and IL-1β (B) in hippocampus. (C) Typical western blot bands of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, BDNF, and NGF. (D) Statistical analysis of proteins. All data are presented as the mean ± SD ( n = 5). ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, vs . Sham group (one-way analysis of variance followed by post hoc Tukey’s honestly significant difference test). BDNF: Brain-derived growth factor; ELISA: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; IL: interleukin; IVH: intraventricular hemorrhage; NGF: nerve growth factor; NSC: neural stem cell; PBS: phosphate-buffered saline; SD: standard deviation; Sox2: sex-determining region Y-box 2; TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor-alpha.
Article Snippet: The supernatant was collected for the assay using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits (EK0527, EK0394, Boster Bio, Anaheim, CA, USA).
