Western blot analysis of netrin-1 and DCC. a Schematic diagram of rat coronal brain section showing the peri-infract cortex (1), contralateral cerebral cortex (2) and infract core (3). b Western blot bands of netrin-1, DCC, and GAPDH in the peri-infarct cortex at days 7 and 14 after MCAO. Analysis of the expression levels of netrin-1 (c) and DCC (d). The band from day 7 in the Sham group is the calibrator sample representing the 1× expression. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, compared with the Sham group at the corresponding time points; ^# p < 0.05, ^## p < 0.01, compared with the MCAO + ADSC group at the corresponding time points. ADSC adipose-derived stem cell, DCC deleted in colorectal cancer, MCAO middle cerebral artery occlusion
