Repeated Sucrose Ingestion Causes a Selective Increase in VGLUT3 Expression in the NAc. (A) Repeated ingestion of sucrose caused no changes in VGLUT1 subunits in the synaptoneurosomes of NAc. Student’s t test, n = 8-9, p > 0.05. (B) Repeated ingestion of sucrose causes an increased trend for the level of VGLUT2 subunits in the synaptoneurosomes of the NAc. n =11, p > 0.05. (C) Repeated ingestion of sucrose caused an increase in VGLUT3 subunits in the synaptoneurosomes of the NAc. n =10, p < 0.05. Data were normalized to values in the control group. Error bars show mean and s.e.m.
