Figure Lengend Snippet: DREADD expression in the SC across all DREADD-expressing animals. Expression is displayed across six slices, from bregma −5.52 mm as the most rostral, to bregma −6.60 mm as the most caudal slice. The color gradient on the SC represents the number of animals that had DREADD expression at each subregion of the SC: the darker the gradient at a subregion, the higher the number of animals that had DREADD expression in that subregion. Each schematic slice is accompanied by an immunohistochemistry photograph of the same slice from a representative animal. The images of the slices were taken from The Rat Brain Atlas in Stereotaxic Coordinates from .

Article Snippet: Animals were administered an intraperitoneal injection of the DREADD ligand CNO (Toronto Research Chemicals, C587520) at a dose of 3 mg/kg in 18% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in saline, or vehicle (18% DMSO, in saline), 20 min before testing.
