Effects of exercise preconditioning on the number of active caspase-3-positive cells in the rat’s hippocampal CA3 area after transient global cerebral ischemia. Exercise preconditioning significantly attenuated the ischemia/reperfusion-induced caspase-3 activation. *Significantly different compared with the sham group (P < 0.001). #Significantly different compared with the sham (P < 0.01) and ischemia (P < 0.05) groups
