Infusions of anti-sense oligonucleotides for DARPP-32 to the VTA reduce P4 (but not E2-) and/or SKF38393-facilitated sexual behavior of rats. Top panel: Lordosis quotients (LQs) of E2+P4-primed rats (mean ± SEM). Bottom panel: LQs of E2-primed rats (mean ± SEM). Inset is schematic representation of rat coronal sections depicting the VTA. Infusion sites within the VTA are designated with closed circles and infusion sites outside of the VTA are indicated with closed squares and a small arrow. * SKF38393 vs. vehicle, p <0.05. ^ Anti-sense vs. sense oligonucleotide, p <0.05
