We investigated the proliferation of neuronal progenitor cells by labeling dividing cells by
systemic application of the thymidine analog 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) during transient
forebrain ischemia in mice. At 3 (n= 6), 7 (n= 6), 10 (n= 6), and 17 days (n= 6) after
reperfusion, BrdU-labeled cells were detected in the dentate gyrus and paraventricle lesion.
After ischemia-reperfusion, BrdU-labeled cells in the dentate gyrus significantly increased in
number but not in the paraventricle lesion. These observations may help to clarify the …

These observations may help to clarify the mechanism of functional recovery after stroke.
