a, Quantification of the number of ACTH-IR neuron profiles in the arcuate nucleus. There is a significant reduction in the number of stained profiles inanx/anx mice compared with wild-type controls. b, Density of α-MSH-IR terminals in the periventricular area of anx/anx compared with wild-type mice. Density was quantified as the number of crossings between the lines of a grid inserted in the microscope eyepiece and stained terminals. The number of line crossings is significantly reduced in mutant mice. Statistical analysis was performed by using ANOVA and Mann–Whitney U test. ***p< 0.001.
