Anatomical localization of leptin-responsive neurons in the NTS of rats and mice. Male Sprague Dawley rats and C57BL/6 mice were injected with leptin ip or PBS for 45 min. Series of coronal hindbrain sections were subjected to P-STAT3 DAB IHC. Shown are representative photomicrographs of P-STAT3 DAB IHC in the NTS of leptin-treated rats (top row) and leptin-treated mice (third row). A matched series of PBS-treated rats and mice were, respectively, shown in the second row and bottom row. All sections are ordered in a rostral to caudal manner (see Bregma levels). cc, Central canal; Cu, cuneate nucleus; Gr, gracile nucleus. Scale bar, 200 μm.
