Fig. 1 Representative photographs of lumbar spinal cord sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin. No neuronal damage to any motor neuron cells was found in animals of group 1 undergoing a sham operation (A), group 2 undergoing 20 minutes AOC (B), and the early IPC group 4 (D). 120 hours after 35 minutes of ischemia, approximately 60% of motor neuron cells in the gray matter were lost in the untreated group 3, whereas the inflammation is obvious (C).
