PACAP administration into the VMN results in increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the GluN2B subunit of the NMDA receptor. (A) Representative VMH protein samples from saline or PACAP (50 pmol/side) microinjections into the VMN probed for phosphorylation of tyrosine 1336 of the GluN2b subunit (pY1336) and total GluN2B protein expression. (B) Semi-quantitative analysis of band densities for pY1336 normalized to total GluN2b expression expressed as a percent of saline treatment. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. * = P < 0.05
