The number of neurons that responded similarly to phasic gastric distention and a given test solution in the same direction (excitatory or inhibitory) (numerator) out of the number of neurons that responded to a test solution (denominator) in intact rats

	MSG	IMP	MSG + IMP	Saline	NaCl
AM	4/18	1/27	0/12	0/14	4/25
LH	0/14	1/12	3/12	2/19	2/7

All neurons were tested with both the test solutions and phasic gastric distention.

AM, amygdala; LH, lateral hypothalamus; Saline, physiological saline.
