Ischemia significantly increased expression of TGF-β in the smooth muscle cell layer of occluded MCAs. A Representative image of TGF-β expression at day 14 after tMCAO in the occluded and non-occluded MCAs. B Quantification of TGF-β mean fluorescence intensity in occluded vs non-occluded MCAs at day 14 after tMCAO; n = 5, *p < 0.05
