Figure 3. Flavor experience increase odor-taste convergence in basolateral amygdala but not in insular cortex.

Percentage of Arc positive neurons in the basolateral amygdala (A,B) and in the insular cortex (C,D) after odor and taste presentations. Cytoplasmic responses correspond to the odor stimulation and nuclear responses correspond to the taste stimulation in the Paired and the Unpaired groups. Data are represented as means ± SEM. ***, **, *: different from the Unpaired group (p<0.001; p<0.01; p = 0.057). °: different from the Caged group (p<0.01).
