Treatment Summary: | Prior to injury, rats were anesthetized and maintained with 2-3% isoflurane. Rats were then placed on 1-inch-thick ethylene-vinyl acetate foam (McMaster-Carr, Elmhurst, IL, USA). rmTBI was induced by subjecting rats to three closed head impacts (2 min interval, 5 m s-1 velocity, 5 mm, 2 mm, and 2 mm head displacement) to the dorsal head surface using a CCI pneumatic injury device (Pittsburgh Precision Instruments, Pittsburgh, PA, USA). This device was equipped with a 1-cm diameter silicone stopper (Renovators Supply Manufacturing, Erving, MA, USA) attached to the piston tip. The sham group underwent identical procedures as the injured group, except for the impacts. |
