Fig. 1. NELL2 expression in the adult male rat hypothalamus.

Fig. 1

(A–C). NELL2 transcripts in coronally sectioned brain tissues from the rostral-to-caudal axis by radioactive ISH. (D) No signal was detected by a sense probe. (E) A relatively high expression of NELL2 protein was found within the PVN. (F) NELL2-ir was also detected within the ARC. (G) Many cells within the dorsomedial (VMHdm) and ventrolateral (VMHvl) parts of the VMH showed a relatively higher expression of NELL2-ir than those in the central (VMHc) part. Abbreviations: BLA, basolateral amygdala; DMH, dorsomedial hypothalamus; HP, hippocampus; VMHa, anterior part of VMH. Scale bar = 2 mm for (A–D), 100 μm for (E–G).
