〔Abstract〕 Objective To investigate the relationship of Danlong Xingnao Prescription (DLXNP) on neural cell apoptosis and expression of c-fos, c-jun and c-myc in ischemic penumbra of rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (MCAO/R). Methods 48 male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham-operation group, cerebral ischemi a-r eperfusion injury (model) group, nimodipine group, small, medium, high dose of DLXNP groups. The middle cerebral artery occlusion/ reperfusion models were prepared by suture method. The neural function defect s...
