Numbers of β-gal-IR cells, and % VGLUT1- or VGLUT2-specific expression, in rats sacrificed at 4 days after injection of pVGLUT1lac into either POR cortex or the VMH

Four hemispheres were analyzed for each injection site; every 4th section was analyzed for either β-gal-IR and VGLUT1-IR or β-gal-IR and VGLUT2-IR; the values shown are mean±s.e.m.
