Figure 2.

Accumulation of Evans blue dye (EB) in cell bodies in the brain. Rats were given EB (200 µl, 20 mg/ml in vehicle) via an implanted atrial catheter 15 min before sacrifice. (a, b) Photomicrographs show the uptake of EB in cells of the Arc in a rat injected with vehicle. The enclosed area with a white line in (a) is magnified in (b). (c) Low magnification of the HIP obtained from a rat given Ang II. (d, e) High magnification of the hippocampal dentate gyrus from rats given vehicle (d) or Ang II (e). White broken lines on the HIP indicate the hilar border of the GCL of the dentate gyrus. Scale bars, 200 µm
