Following stroke, marked albumin extravasation, indicative of BBB breakdown and subsequent vasogenic cerebral edema formation, was observed both macroscopically within the infarcted territory and microscopically in the perivascular tissue of the infarct in vehicles (Figure 4B), 1×NK1 (Figure 4C) and DC (Figure 4F), when compared to shams (Figure 4A), 2×NK1 (Figure 4D) and 3×NK1 (Figure 4E) treatment groups. Here, ALB is linked to Stroke.
