Effects of exercise preconditioning on the number of Bcl-2-positive cells in the rats’ hippocampal CA3 area after the transient global cerebral ischemia. Exercise preconditioning significantly attenuated the ischemia/reperfusion-induced increase in the number of Bcl-2-positive cells. *Significantly different compared with the sham group (P < 0.01). #Significantly different compared with the ischemia group (P < 0.001)
