Cross electro-nape-acupuncture ameliorates cerebral hemorrhage-induced brain damage by inhibiting necroptosis

Figure 4 Cross electro-nape acupuncture ameliorated inflammatory cytokines in rats with cerebral hemorrhage. A-C: The mRNA level of IL-6 (A), IL-8 (B) and TNF-α (C) in the brain tissues of experimental rats; D-F: The concentration of IL-6 (D), IL-8 (E) and TNF-α (F) in the CSF of rats; G-I: The secretion level of IL-6 (G), IL-8 (H) and TNF-α (I) in the serum of rats. ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01, ^cP < 0.001. CENA: Cross electro-nape acupuncture; CH: cerebral hemorrhage; IL: Interleukin; TNF: Tumor necrosis factor.
