Lung function was deteriorated and the expression of TNF-α in lung was increased after MCAO. a, b Blood gas analysis of the Sham group and BI group. PaO2 (a); PaCO2 (b). c, d qRT-PCR assessment of the mRNA expression of TNF-α in the Sham group and BI group at 3(c) and 7(d) days after MCAO. e Western blot assessment of the protein expression of TNF-α in lung tissues in the Sham group and BI group. A semi-quantitative analysis was used to represent the total protein level of TNF-α. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared to the Sham group, n = 5 in each group
