The impairment of CD4 T cell production resulted in smaller infarction. Representative TTC staining of infarction is shown. The bar graph represents the statistical results of infarct sizes. N = 6/group. *P < 0.05, vs WT-sham; #P < 0.05, vs CD4(−)-sham; ^P < 0.05, vs WT. WT, wild type; CD4(−), CD4 deficit
