FIGURE 2

Orexin-A positive cells in L-histidine decarboxylase knockout and wild-type mice. (A,B) Show representative sections of orexin immunostaining (cells with red cytoplasm) in L-histidine decarboxylase knockout mice (KO-HIST) and WT mice, respectively. In both panels, the bottom left insets show a higher magnification of the delimited area (white square) in the main panel. 3V: third ventricle. Scale bars = 100 μm for main panels and upper insets and 12.5 μm for the lower insets. For the sole purpose of figure publication, the contrast and brightness were adjusted to resemble the appearance of the labeling seen through the microscope using Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended 10.0 software (Adobe Systems, San Jose, CA, United States). (C) Shows the total number of orexin-positive neurons in four WT control and four KO-HIST mice. Gray and black dots represent individual animals. The horizontal line and whiskers indicate means ± SEM.
