Comparison of fMRI BOLD Response Patterns by Electrical Stimulation of the Ventroposterior Complex and Medial Thalamus of the Rat
Figure 10
Photomicrographs depicting the distribution of Fos-immunoreactive cells in the brain regions of the iCC, iS1FL and iCPu after MT or VP stimulation.
(A) Regions of interest where c-Fos labeled cells were counted. An example of the c-Fos labeled cells is shown in the right panel. (B) Show examples of the c-Fos labeled cells within iCC and iCPu with a 9-Hz (1,2) MT stimulation compare to 3-Hz stimulation (3,4) and sham control (5,6). (C) Examples of c-Fos labeled cells within the iCC and iCPu with 9-Hz (7,8) VP stimulation compared to 3-Hz stimulation (9,10) stimulation and the sham control (11,12). Scale bar = 0.1 mm.
