Effects of intra-AcbSh MTEP and adolescent-onset alcohol consumption upon Egr1 expression within the AcbSh. (A) A reference schematic of the approximate size and location of the sampling region. (B) Overall, vehicle-infused adolescent-onset alcohol-drinking mice exhibited higher Egr1 expression within AcbSh versus water-drinking controls. Both 1 and 10 μg/side MTEP significantly reduced Egr1 expression in water-drinking controls. However, only the reduction in Egr1 expression produced by the 10 μg/side MTEP dose was statistically significant in adolescent-onset alcohol-drinking mice. (C) Representative micrographs of Egr1 immunostaining within the AcbSh in each of the six treatment groups. p < 0.05 treatment effect within same drinking group, +p < 0.05 drinking effect within same intracranial treatment group.
