Dex inhibits the apoptosis of neurons after CA/CPR. CA/CPR-induced apoptosis, as assessed by TUNEL staining. A The quantitative analysis results of TUNEL staining. B Treatment with Dex decreased the levels of cleaved caspase-3. D Western blot analysis results, normalized to α-tubulin. The data are expressed as the means ± SD and the scale bar of TUNEL staining is 100 μM (n = 4–6).*P < 0.05
