Figure 2. Genetic deletion of Bmal1 abolishes circadian rhythmicity in gastric octanoyl ghrelin content.

Figure 2

(a–f) Representative pictures of corpus sections stained for octanoyl ghrelin of WT (a–c) or Bmal1-KO (d–f) mice at ZT 8 (a,d), ZT 12 (b,e) and ZT 20 (c,f). (g) Picture of a no primary antibody negative control section. (h) Number of octanoyl ghrelin immunoreactive cells/mm2 and (i) intensity of the octanoyl ghrelin staining in sections of the corpus of WT or Bmal1-KO mice (n = 3 mice/time point/genotype). Light and dark phases are shaded in white and gray, respectively. (AU = arbitrary unit).
