Average number of c-Fos⁺ neurons per brain slice after injection of neurotensin (1.2 per 0.3 μl of solution) or vehicle (0.3 μl) into the anterior paraventricular nucleus of thalamus (aPVT, n = 8) or posterior paraventricular nucleus of thalamus (pPVT, n = 9) (Experiment 5).

Injection	aPVT	mPVT	pPVT
aPVT
Vehicle	37 ± 10	34 ± 19	19 ± 11
Neurotensin	214 ± 90#	177 ± 68#	107 ± 23*
pPVT
Vehicle	23 ± 4	10 ± 4	18 ± 12
Neurotensin	24 ± 6	36 ± 11	230 ± 55*

Data are mean ± S.E.M.;

^*p < 0.05,

^#p = 0.08 or 0.09 vs. vehicle.
