The neuroprotective effect of W1302 on acute ischemic stroke in rats
This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of peripheral nerve microcurrent stimulation therapy in a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Twenty 8-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats weighing 300–330 g were categorised into group A, serving as the healthy control; group B, including rats subjected to MCAO; group C, including rats receiving microcurrent therapy immediately after MCAO, which was continued for one week; and group D, including rats receiving microcurrent therapy one week before and one week after MCAO. A gross morphological analysis, behavioural mo
