Figure 4.

Effect of stress on c-Fos induction in hindbrain PPG neurons. Representative images of c-Fos induction responses in unstressed (A and D. No Res) and 30-min restraint stressed (B, C, and E. Res) YFP-PPG (mGLU-124 line) mice. C. Higher magnification image taken from the area inside the white box in panel B. F. Significantly more GFP-labeled PPG cells were c-Fos-positive after acute restraint stress in both the cNTS and RF relative to the no stress condition, *p<0.0001. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. n=4 No Res, n=5 Res.
