MouseSpinal cord injuryContusionC57BL/6FemaleAdministered during the acute phase of injury

Model: Spinal cord contusion injury

Pifithrin-mu attenuated microglial activation in vitro and, given during the acute phase, reduced lesion size and the number of pro-inflammatory microglia and macrophages, maintaining a more anti-inflammatory environment after a single dose.
