(A,B) The representative photographs of the dorsal medulla (A) and central amygdaloid nuclei (B) 5 days after 5% DSS treatment. Con Con-DSS group, Si Si-DSS group. The vagal dorsal motor nuclei and solitary tract nuclei (A), and central amygdaloid nuclei (B) of a control mouse (arrow) and an Si-based agent-treated mouse (arrowhead). Square in (B): the central amygdaloid nuclei, 12N: hypoglossal nerve nuclei, AP: area postrema, cc: central canal, and Ce: central amygdaloid nuclei. Scale bar: 200 µm.
