Fig. 4.
The effects of acute administration of the D3-preferring agonist 7-OH-DPAT on Fos protein levels in the PVT. The top panel shows an immunoblot demonstrating the effects of 7-OH-DPAT on Fos protein levels, with the lower panel showing the graphical representation of the PVT Fos response across all animals. The higher (0.1 mg/kg) dose of the agonist significantly increased Fos expression. *p ≤ 0.05 relative to vehicle-injected control.
