1 The objective of this study was to investigate a possible anxiogenic effect of CCK-8 microinjected into the dPAG. dpag cholecystokinin Rattus norvegicus
2 CCK-8s injected into the dPAG induced Fos immunoreactivity in several brain areas related to defensive behavior, including the PAG, median, and dorsal raphe nuclei, superior colliculus, lateral septal nuclei, medial hypothalamus, and medial amygdala. dpag cholecystokinin Rattus norvegicus
3 These results suggest that CCK-8s, acting on CCK-2 receptors, may modulate anxiety reactions in the dPAG. dpag cholecystokinin Rattus norvegicus
4 These results suggest that CCK-8s, acting on CCK-2 receptors, may modulate anxiety reactions in the dPAG. dpag cholecystokinin Rattus norvegicus
