Effects of PACAP on conditioned freezing and Arc expression. (A) Percent freezing to the context alone and in the presence of the tone in animals treated with vehicle (VEH) or PACAP (1.5 μg) and fear conditioned (FC) on Day 0. Expression of Arc protein in cell bodies in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA), bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) (B) or measured by optical density (O.D.) in the lateral (LA) and basolateral amygdala (BLA) (C) following the freezing test. VEH (FC), n=5; PACAP (FC), n=5. ***P<0.0005 compared to VEH (FC) group. Data are shown as mean±s.e.m. Individual data points for each treatment group are represented in scatter plots on the bar graphs.
