Fig. 1

Representative average z-projections of the olfactory bulb that were immune-stained for eGFP (green, CF488) and pERK (magenta, CF 594). Scale bar, 50 µm valid for all images in the same panel. a VPCs following water, urine, or rat stimulation. Arrows indicate cells that are double-labeled for eGFP and pERK. b pERK+ MCs. c Averaged fraction of pERK+ VPCs of all VPCs in different stimulation groups (%). One-way ANOVA, LSD for single comparison, *p < 0.05 rat vs. water. d Cumulative probability of averaged fraction pERK+ VPCs of all VPCs in different stimulation groups (%). e Averaged number of pERK+ MCs per section in different stimulation groups. One-way ANOVA, LSD for single comparison, *p < 0.05 rat vs. water and rat vs. urine. Data are presented as box-plots including first, median, and third quartiles with whiskers representing the range of data points and distribution of single data points. n = 10 rats (water), n = 9 rats (urine), n = 10 rats (rat).
