Number of c-Fos+ cells and Pyramidal cells in layer V of mPFC.

<p>All values are means ± SEM (number of cells/4.3×10⁵ µm³) or percentage of colocalization of Pyramidal and c-Fos+ cells from 13 adult rats in visual/HDB stimulation group. Abbreviations: Ctx: cortex; GluT(EAAC1): glutamate transporter; HDB: horizontal limb of the diagonal band; mPFC: medial prefrontal cortex.</p><p>*p≤0.05, Mann-Whitney U test, two-tailed, group-specific difference between control and visual stimulation.</p>▵<p>p≤0.05, Mann-Whitney U test, two-tailed, group-specific difference between control and HDB stimulation.</p>&<p>p≤0.05, Mann-Whitney U test, two-tailed, group-specific difference between control and visual/HDB stimulation.</p>▴<p>p≤0.05, Mann-Whitney U test, two-tailed, group-specific difference between visual/HDB stimulation and HDB stimulation.</p>▪<p>p≤0.05, Mann-Whitney U test, two-tailed, group-specific difference between visual stimulation and HDB stimulation.
