Photomicrographs and schematic diagrams of the frontal sections of mouse brains showing lesion extents in bilateral amygdala induced by the ibotenic acid injections. (A) A photomicrograph of the frontal section of amygdala slice (Bregma −2.0 mm) in a sham-lesioned mouse. (B) A photomicrograph of the frontal section of the amygdala (Bregma −2.0 mm) shows lesion extent (red dot line). (C) Photomicrographs (left panel; C1, C3, C5, C7) and schematic diagrams (right panel; C2, C4, C6, C8) of the serial frontal sections (Bregma −1.5 to −3.0 mm) showing the lesion extents (red dot line or gray area, respectively) in mouse No. 1491. ASt, amygdalostriatal transition area; BL, basolateral amygdaloid nucleus; BM, basomedial amygdaloid nucleus; Ce, central amydaloid nucleus; Co, cortical amygdaloid nucleus; CPu, caudate putamen (Striatum); En, endopiriform claustrum; La, lateral amygdaloid nucleus; Me, medial amygdaloid nucleus; Pir, piriform cortex; RAPir, rostral amygdalopiriform area; STIA, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, intraamygdaloid division.
