The effects of excitotoxic lesions on CTA, expressed as the percentage of Sac consumption on the first evocation test (day 21) related to the respective fluid baseline consumption (days 18-20). The effects of brain lesions made before (acquisition; left) and after (evocation; right) conditioning took place are shown. Lesion, Excitotoxic lesion; sham, sham lesion. Data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA, and post hoc analysis was done by Fisher's test. The results are expressed as mean ± SE. ^*p ≤ 0.05 relative to the groups below the line (n = 8 for all groups).
