Background and Purpose. Previously, we found that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels in the infarct cortex in the acute phase of distal middle cerebral artery occlusion (dMCAO) rats are increased by intravenous infusion of allogeneic mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs). CD68+ microglia an...
