c-fos expression in distinct brain regions after IA training. (A) Representative immunohistochemical staining of PL, IL, BLA, CA1, and ACC c-fos-positive cells from the indicated mice. Scale bar, 50 μ m. (B) c-fos expression in the LA, BLA, and CeA regions of the amygdala (home cage, n = 8; US only, n = 6; CS only, n = 10; CS-US, n = 7). (C) c-fos expression in the CA1, CA3, and DG regions of the hippocampus (home cage, n = 7; US only, n = 6; CS only, n = 9; CS-US, n = 6). (D) c-fos expression in the prelimbic and infralimbic regions of the mPFC (home cage, n = 8; US only, n = 6; CS only, n = 10; CS-US, n = 7). (E) c-fos expression in the cortex regions (ACC: home cage, n = 8; US only, n = 6; CS only, n = 10; CS-US, n = 7; VC, TC, PRh, and EC: home cage, n = 6; US only, n = 5; CS only, n = 7; CS-US, n = 5). Error bars are SEM. *P < 0.05, compared with the other groups. c-fos expression for each group is expressed as the ratio of the home cage group to the other groups.
