Figure 4From: Distinct α subunit variations of the hypothalamic GABAA receptor triplets (αβγ) are linked to hibernating state in hamstersPercentage of α 1,2,4,5 mRNA GABA A R expression in hypothalamic areas of NHIB and HIB hamsters. % differences of α1 (a), α2 (b), α4 (c) and α5 (d) expression levels over total α levels in hypothalamic HIB areas were evaluated with respect to their controls and compared to the % differences of NHIB. a,*p < 0.05; b,**p < 0.01; c,***p < 0.001. Arc: arcuate hypothalamic nucleus; MPOA: medial preoptic area; Pe: periventricolar hypothalamic nucleus; Sch: suprachiasmatic nucleus.Back to article page
