Section from the pontine part of the brain stem labeled for orexin-A. In contrast to the very dense immunoreactive varicose fibers in the medial parabrachial nucleus (MPB), the adjacent caudal part of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus (MTN) expresses sparse density. Note that axonal varicosities and terminal button-like dots (arrows) are in close apposition to the MTN neuronal perikarya. Scale bar: 30 μm
