From: Hypothalamic FTO is associated with the regulation of energy intake not feeding reward

Figure 2

ISH detection of FTO mRNA in sites involved in the regulation of energy- or reward-related feeding. Panels A-D show sites affecting mainly reward, whereas panels E and F depict energy-related areas. aca, anterior commisure; AcbC, nucleus accumbens core; AcbSh, Acb shell; ARC, arcuate nucleus; BST, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis; BSTMA, BST medial anterior; BSTMPL, BST medial posterolateral; DMH, dorsomedial nucleus; f, fornix; fr, fasciculus retroflexus; LC, locus corelueus; LH, lateral hypothalamus; LPO, lateral preoptic area; LV, lateral ventricle; ml, medial lemniscus; otr, optic tract; PBN, parabrachial nucleus; PVN, paraventricular nucleus; SHy, septohypothalamic nucleus; SCN, suprachiasmatic nucleus; scp, superior cerebellar peduncle; SON, supraoptic nucleus; VMH, ventromedial nucleus; VTA, ventral tegmental area; 3v, 3rd ventricle; 4v, 4th ventricle; 7n, facial nerve.
