Effects of COMP-Ang1 protein administration on the tPA-4h group.

These panels show the amount of cerebral hemorrhage (A), cerebral edema volume (B), cerebral infarct volume (C), and the prognosis with a 6-point neurological scale score (D) 24 h after ischemia. A-C were performed on the COMP-Ang1 group (N = 5) and the COMP group (N = 5). D was performed on the COMP-Ang1 group (N = 11) and the COMP group (N = 9). Cerebral edema and infarct volumes are expressed as proportions on the ischemic side of the cerebral hemisphere. The amount of cerebral hemorrhage is expressed as hemoglobin concentration in a whole cerebral homogenate. COMP; cartilage oligomeric protein, COMP-Ang1; cartilage oligomeric protein-angiopoietin-1.
