Objective: To explore the mechanisms of the interventional effect of Huoxue Tongluo recipe on mitochondria pathway in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) rats. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, modeling group and Huoxue Tongluo group (HXTL group). The model of cerebral I/R was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and recanalization. Neural function score were evaluated at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after cerebral reperfusion, and terminal deoxyribo-nucleotide trans- ferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick ...
