Light photomicrograph of coronal brain sections showing example of injector placements (black arrowheads) within (panel a) the dorsomedial subdivision of the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN), (b) the dorsal aspect of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN), and (c) the posterodorsal medial amygdala (MeA). Numbers (top right of each panel) indicate approximate anterior–posterior distance from bregma in mm. Ic, internal capsule; f, fornix; LH, lateral hypothalamus; mt, medial tubercle; opt, optic tract; st, stria terminalis; III, third ventricle.
