Comparison of the Cre-mediated recombination patterns in Nes-Cre and Syn1^CreERT2 mice. (A–J’) Images of areas where GFP signals were detected in Nes-Cre; Rosa26^{LSL−L10−GFP/+} mice (A–E’) and tamoxifen-injected (at P14, 17, and 21) Syn1^CreERT2; Rosa26^{LSL−L10−GFP/+} mice (F–J’). PVH, paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (A’, F’); SC, superior colliculus (B’, G’); Pb, parabrachial nucleus (C’, H’); cerebellum (D’, I’), LC, locus coeruleus (D’’, I’’); NTS, solitary tract nucleus (E’, J’), scp, superior cerebellar peduncle. Scale bars in (A–J), 1 mm; scale bars in (A’–J’), 200 µm. Representative images from a replicate of N = 2 Nes-Cre; Rosa26^{LSL−L10−GFP/+} mice, N = 4 Syn1^CreERT2; Rosa26^{LSL−L10−GFP/+} mice are shown
