GSDMD and cerebral infarction: Neurological deficit scores evaluated the neurological function, cerebral infarction volume was observed by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, TUNEL and caspase-1 double-labeled fluorescence staining, and NLRP3 and caspase-1 double-labeled immunofluorescence staining that were used to observe the morphology of neurons in hippocampus, and the protein expression of NLRP3, pro-caspase-1, cleaved caspase-1 p20, pro-interleukin-1β (IL-1β), cleaved IL-1β, and GSDMD was detected by Western blot assay.
