Ghrelin Receptor (GHS-R1A) Antagonism Suppresses Both Alcohol Consumption and the Alcohol Deprivation Effect in Rats following Long-Term Voluntary Alcohol Consumption
Figure 7
Scatter plot of Ghsr expression in the VTA.
The present figure shows a significant negative correlation between the expression of Ghsr in the VTA (data presented as arbitrary units 2−ΔΔCT where the mean ΔCT of the group of low alcohol consuming rats was set as the calibrator) and mean alcohol consumption (g/kg/24 hrs) in rats that have voluntarily been drinking alcohol for ten months.
