Schematic presentation of the experimental design. Animals were subjected to transient focal ischemia for 60 min after MCAo. Animals were randomly divided into four groups: sham group (no MCAo), control group (Con, MCAo under Isoflurane; no agent till reperfusion), isoflurane group (MCAo under Isoflurane, 1.5% isoflurane anesthesia continued till reperfusion), xylazine group (MCAo under Isoflurane, intramuscular xylazine injection (20 mg/kg) 10 min before artery occlusion, and 30 min post-occlusion). 5 (sham), 14 (control), 25 (ISO), 25 (Xyl) animals were used in this study
