Targeting of bicuculline (BMI) injections to the prelimbic cortex (PL). A. Atlas section mapping a prototypical injection, with injector tip indicated by the black oval and extent of maximal Fos induction indicated by the gray shaded area. B. Unilateral injections of BMI dramatically increase Fos immunoreactivity in otherwise unstimulated animals. Note the lack of Fos induction in the contralateral PL, which was injected with saline at the same time (injector tips noted by localized Fos reactivity). Note the extensive Fos induction of the PL, with some additional activation evident in the ventral anterior cingulate cortex (AC) and the dorsal infralimbic cortex (IL).
