Fig. 5. Assessment of the post-stroke somatosensory dysfunction. Somatosensory dysfunction at one-day reperfusion including the degree of recovery during reperfusion was assessed at regular intervals by the modified adhesive removal (sticky-tape) test in rats subjected to 2h ischemia followed by seven days reperfusion. Dotted and solid lines represent the data of ischemia-induced animals that were treated immediately after reperfusion with vehicle and exosomes, respectively. Error bars indicate SEM. n=6-9. ^ΔΔp<0.01 vs. 1d reperfusion; ^ΔΔΔp<0.001 vs. 1d reperfusion; ^*p<0.05 vs. vehicle treatment at any given time point.
