Figure 5.

Modified schematic from the mouse brain atlas of Franklin and Paxinos (Franklin & Paxinos, 2008) showing the location of forebrain regions in which labeled puncta (dark gray boxes; 100² μm) were counted. Counting regions included the medial olfactory tubercle (A), the shell (left) and core (right) of the nucleus accumbens (B), the horizontal diagonal band of Broca (C), the medial preoptic area (D), medial (left), intermediate (middle), and lateral (right) posterior bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (E), dorsomedial (left) and ventrolateral (right) subdivisions of the ventromedial hypothalamus (F), and posteromedial cortical amygdala (G). Numerical values represent the distance in mm from bregma for each section.
