Fig 1: (A) Photomicrograph showing high somatodendritic immunoreactivity of CRF in the BNSTALG (magnification 10×, scale bar 100 μ, ac, anterior commissure; cp, caudate putamen; BNSTov, oval nucleus of the BNST; BNSTju, juxtacapsular nucleus of the BNST). (B–B”): Photomicrographs showing high-level co-localization of CRF (B, red) and GAD67 (B', green) in the BNSTALG (B”, merged, double arrows). Virtually all CRF-immunoreactive neurons co-express GAD67, but numerous GAD67-positive neurons do not co-localize CRF in the BNSTALG. (C–C”) In contrast, CRF-immunoreactive neurons (B, red, open arrows) do not co-localize VGLUT2 (C', green) in the BNSTALG (magnification 63×, scale bar 10 μm).
