Fos-IR neurons in the DMV, NTS and AP. (A,C) Fos-IR neurons in the DMV, NTS and AP of the hypothalamus in sham VMH-lesioned RWIS rats. (B,D) Fos-IR neurons DMV, NTS and AP in VMH-lesioned RWIS rats. The insets show higher magnification (×400) of cells in the small boxes. Scale bars = 200 µm. (E) Cell counts with immunohistochemical staining of Fos-IR neurons in the DMV, NTS and AP of sham VMH-lesioned RWIS rats and VMH-lesioned RWIS rats. Data are presented as the means ± SEM (n = 7). **P < 0.01,*P < 0.05 compared with the sham group.
