CRF injection induces KOR phosphorylation in specific mouse brain regions
| Region | CRF-induced KORp-ir | Region | CRF-induced KORp-ir |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dorsal raphe nucleus | +++ | Nucleus accumbens | ++ |
| Basolateral amygdala | +++ | Bed nucleus stria terminalis | + |
| Dorsal hippocampus | +++ | Caudate–putamen | Not detected |
| Ventral pallidum | ++ | Central nucleus amygdala | Not detected |
| Ventral tegmental area | ++ |
Compiled summary of qualitative data showing brain regions positive or negative for KORp-ir after intracerebroventricular CRF injection. Positive KORp-ir is indicated in three levels of magnitude (+++, high; ++, moderate; +, lowest but above background control).
