Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were divided into 4 groups: sham operation group (Sham group, n = 5), poststroke central pain group (CPSP group, n = 5), poststroke central pain + acupuncture group (AP group, n = 5), central pain after stroke + acupuncture + SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 group (EX527 group, n = 5). This evidence concerns the gene SIRT1 and stroke disorder.
