Immunofluorescence studies showed brain ZO-1 and Nrf2 expression in mice after 14 days of JUUL/TS exposure with MCAO. A Immunofluorescence images of brain slices where green color represents ZO-1 while blue color represents DAPI (nuclear marker). Quantification of contralateral (B) and ipsilateral (C) ZO-1 expression relative to DAPI, expressed as a percentage. D Immunofluorescence images of brain slices where green color represents Nrf2 while blue color represents DAPI (nuclear marker). Quantification of contralateral (E) and ipsilateral (F) Nrf2 expression relative to DAPI, expressed as a percentage. Contralateral, non-injured hemisphere of the stroke brain; ipsilateral, injured hemisphere of the stroke brain. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001; n = 4 mice for each group
