Figure 5. Avp mRNA expression in the SCN during ontogenetic development.

Figure 5

(A) Representative coronal sections showing the Avp hybridisation signal in the SCN (arrows) of fetal (E18), newborn (P2) and adult (6–10 week-old) C3H mice. Scale bar: 750 μm. (B) Relative optical density (O.D.) within the SCN region of fetal (green), newborn (red), and adult (black) C3H mice. Data are expressed as the mean +/− SEM of five animals per timepoint and ontogenetic stage. Data points at CT00/24 are double-plotted. Asterisks indicate significant differences between peak levels at CT06 and trough levels at CT00 (*p<0.05, one-way ANOVA).
