FosB/ΔFosB levels are increased specifically in the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) following repeated mT exposure. FosB/ΔFosB immunofluorescent staining was carried out on perfused brain tissue from chronic scent-exposed mice. (A,B) Representative images of FosB/ΔFosB expression in the DMH in a BA or mT-exposed mouse brain, respectively. Dotted line represents DMH based on approximate brain region boundaries (C) from Paxinos and Franklin (2004); 3V, third ventricle, f, fornix, VMH, ventromedial hypothalamus, Arc, arcuate nucleus. Significantly more FosB/ΔFosB positive cells were counted in the DMH of chronically mT-exposed mice, compared to BA-exposed (D). Error bars shown represent SEM.
