Distribution of i.v. EXN-4–induced Fos-IR in the brain. A series of photomicrographs demonstrates Fos-IR in neurons 2 hours after i.v. administration of EXN-4 (first and third columns) or PFS (second and fourth columns) in several brain regions. These regions include (a and b) the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVH); (c and d) the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA); (e and f) the arcuate nucleus (Arc) and the retrochiasmatic area (RCA); (g and h) the external lateral subdivision of the parabrachial nucleus (PBel); (i and j) the locus coeruleus (LC); (k and l) the A5 cell group (A5); (m and n) the area postrema (AP) and the NTS; (o and p) the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVML); (q and r) the caudal ventrolateral medulla (CVLM); and (s and t) the IML in the spinal cord. 3v, third ventricle; f, fornix; 4v, fourth ventricle; VII, facial nerve. Scale bar = 250 μm in a–d, g, and h, and 100 μm in e, f, and i–t.
