Fig. 5 — Drawings are arranged from rostral (A) to caudal (L) and are separated by a distance of 500 – 800 μm. The drawings are modified from Hof et al. (Hof et al., 2000) and represent a composite qualitative distribution of the brains from 3 male and 3 female Agtr1a BAC transgenic mice. Light cells = open circle symbol (○); Dark cells = solid circle symbol (●); Clusters of cells = the asterisk symbol (*). In select regions, the number of AT1aR-EGFP cells was quantified (see table 1). Bar, 1 mm.
