Fig. 3.

Comparison of DCN neuron distribution in C57BL/6J wild type and weaver. Cell counts were taken every 80 μm in sagittally sectioned brains and then graphed versus percentage mediolateral distance from the most medial aspect of the DCN. One side of one wild-type and both sides of one weaver brain are shown. Note the selective decrease in medial counts, particularly those in medial nucleus interpositus, in the weaver DCN.Bars at the top of the figure indicate approximate boundaries of each nucleus as determined by measurement of nuclei in several coronal sections.
