Area Kiss/KOR, % Kiss Only, % Kiss Cells, n KOR/Kiss, % KOR Only, % KOR Cells, n
ARC 97.8 ± 1.5 2.2 ± 1.5 69.0 ± 1.6 42.3 ± 2.5 57.67 ± 2.5 162.8 ± 3.7
POA 11.1 ± 3.7 88.9 ± 2.4 10.8 ± 4.1

Abbreviation: Kiss, kisspeptin. Values are expressed as group mean ± SEM. Kiss/KOR, % indicates percentage of kisspeptin-ir cells containing KOR; Kiss only, % indicates percentage of kisspeptin-ir cells not containing KOR; Kiss cells, n indicates number of kisspeptin-ir cells per animal; KOR/Kiss, % indicates percentage of KOR-ir cells containing kisspeptin; KOR only, % indicates percentage of KOR-ir cells not containing kisspeptin; KOR cells, n indicates number of KOR-ir cells per animal.
