From: Expression and localization of CB1R, NAPE-PLD, and FAAH in the vervet monkey nucleus accumbens
Spatial distribution of CB1R, NAPE-PLD, and FAAH throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the NAc. Coronal serial sections were taken adjacent to the CB stained slices in Fig. 2(a–f) Rostral sections show relatively homogenous staining of CB1R, but there is an increase of staining density in the medial portion of the shell beginning in mid-rostrocaudal sections (c). In (d) and further caudally, the CB1R expression is further increased in the medial shell. It is also noticeably augmented in the core and the ventral shell at these levels. (g–l) NAPE-PLD and (m–r) FAAH distributions remain relatively homogenous across the rostrocaudal extent. Scale bar = 1 mm. C = core; Sh = shell.
