From: Neutrophil elastase inhibitor prevents ischemic brain damage via reduction of vasogenic edema
Sivelestat reduces vasogenic edema after MCAO. Percent left/right hemisphere weight (a) and Evans Blue content (b) were compared among the sham group (n=3), vehicle group (n=14), and sivelestat group (n=11) after 24 h of MCAO. Note that 100% mean values of left hemisphere are equal to those of right hemisphere. Values are expressed as mean±s.e.m. *P<0.05 or **P<0.01 vs sham-operated group. #P<0.05 vs. vehicle group.
