Schematic representation, based on the microscopic analysis of cresyl violet-stained sections, of infusion sites for female rats tested for maternal behavior following infusion treatments. (A) mPOA cannulated postpartum females tested at both early and late postpartum stages; (B) mPOA cannulated postpartum females tested only in late postpartum, and (C) postpartum females with cannulae located immediately dorsal to the mPOA (dorsal control). Circles represent the most ventral extent of the injector tracks in the brain. Plates were taken from the atlas of Paxinos and Watson (1997). Numbers beside each plate indicate the distance from bregma in millimeters.
