Figure 3

Circadian day-night profiles of c-Fos and orexin-A expression in the tuberal hypothalamus. The expression of c-Fos-ir was significantly higher during the subjective night (dark filled histograms) compared with the subjective day (gray filled histograms) in both the medial (A) and lateral (B) tuberal hypothalamus. Co-expression of c-Fos with OXA neurons showed a similar temporal relationship in medial (E) and lateral (F) tuberal hypothalamus. The numbers of OXA neurons did not vary from subjective day to night in either the medial (C) or lateral (D) tuberal hypothalamus. Histograms show mean ± SEM. ***p < 0.001.
