HE staining of rats spinal cord A) Representative HE staining of control spinal cord tissue. Representative HE staining of spinal cord tissue from the ischemic group when ischemia was induced for 32 min, followed by a B) 12-h, C) 24-h, or D) 48-h reperfusion period. Representative HE staining of spinal cord tissue from the Astragalus-treated group. Astragalus injection was administered 30 min before ischemia induction (32 min) followed by a E) 12-h, F) 24-h, or a G) 48-h reperfusion period. All images are shown at 400× magnification.

Groups 8 h 12 h 24 h 48 h Control group 2.55 2.02 1.81 I/R group 9.98±0.63 11.95±0.34 10.40±0.77 8.17±0.78 Ast group 5.28±0.35* 6.53±0.57* 8.49±0.46* 6.29±0.99* ↵* The differences among rats in the I/R group, Ast group, and control group are significant (F=22.329, p<0.01). Furthermore, the NSE levels were significantly higher in the I/R group, compared with the Ast group, at each time point (F=38.646, p<0.01), h - hours, I/R - ischemia-reperfusion
Groups 8 h 12 h 24 h 48 h Control group 0.244 0.066 0.06 I/R group 0.427±0.234 0.499±0.255 0.554±0.268 0.659±0.290 Ast group 0.295±0.119* 0.257±0.130* 0.231±0.117* 0.215±0.096 The differences among rats in the I/R group, Ast group, and control group are significant (F=10.482, p<0.01). *At 8 h, 12 h, and 24 h, the difference in the AQP4 level was significant between the I/R group and Ast group (t8h=2.86, t12h=3.611, t24h=4.72, p<0.05). However, the AQP4 level was not significantly different between the I/R and Ast group at 48 h (t=2.513, p>0.05), h - hours, I/R - ischemia-reperfusion
