MOR and DR2 expression in the nucleus accumbens (NAcc). (A) Fat bingeing feeding decreased DR2 in NAc-shell but chronic stress increased DR2 of NAc-shell in fat-bingeing feeding mice. (B) Chronic stress increased DR2 of NAc-core in fat-bingeing feeding mice. (C) Chronic stress increased MOR of NAc-shell both in chow food feeding mice and fat-bingeing feeding mice. (D) Chronic stress increased MOR of NAc core in fat-bingeing feeding mice. *denotes significant differences in daily food intake between the fat-bingeing group and chow group, and # denotes significant differences between the fat-bingeing group and chronic stress/fat-bingeing group (*P<0.05, ^##P<0.01; ^###P<0.001).Abbreviations: NAc-shell, nucleus accumbens shell; NAc-core, nucleus accumbens core; DR2, dopamine receptor 2; MOR, mu-opioid receptor.
