    Summary
    Our results showed that the L-carnosine-treated rats had milder neurological deficits and smaller infarct volume and showed up-regulated expression in mRNA levels of STAT3 and Pim-1 than vehicle-treated rats at 72 h after treatment.
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    To investigate the molecular mechanisms, rat models of permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) and sham operation were first established and then pMCAO and sham-operated rats were treated with L-carnosine or vehicle alone.
