Using Tunel/SOX2, TUNEL/BrdU/NeuN, and NeuN/BrdU co-staining, we observed that cTBS attenuated apoptotic cell death of neural progenitor cells and newborn neuronal cells in the peri-infarct area, and increased the number of newly generated neurons at 22 days after PT stroke. This evidence concerns the gene RBFOX3 and stroke disorder.
