Representative high resolution (21 µm) scanned images of brain regions obtained using the Licor Odyssey scanner. Eight hundred nanaometers near-infrared fluorescence was used to measure c-Fos and c-Jun levels in all brain regions. (A) Sensory regions showing the AUD and MGN. (B) The PAG was divided into dorsal PAG (dPAG), lateral PAG (lPAG), and ventral PAG (vPAG). (C) Midline thalamic nuclei analyzed in this study. (left) mHab and PVT. (right) Rh nucleus and nucleus reuniens (RE). White horizontal line denotes 1 mm distance.
