Effect of electrical lesion of the LHb on BAT thermogenesis elicited by the introduction of an intruder in the resident rat cage. (a) Averages (mean ± SEM) of original records of BAT and body temperature in the resident rat during the 10 min pre-intruder period and 30 min intruder exposure period. For lesioned rats, data are shown as solid line with filled circled. For control rats, data are shown as dashed lines with open circles. The intrusion period is indicated by the thick horizontal bar. (b) Histological demonstration of electrically lesioned area in the LHb. CA1, field CA of hippocampus; cc, corpus callosum; CM, central medial thalamic nucleus; cpd, cerebral peduncle; f, fornix; LP, lateral posterior thalamic nucleus; MD, mediodorsal thalamic nucleus; mt, mammilothalamic tract; opt, optic tract.
