Boldface indicates where the contrast area had higher expression. The range of fold change is shown when more than one experiment was available for comparison. The maximum number of experiments per gene was three or less. NE: no significant expression in the contrast area. NA: target area expression was not available. SO: supraoptic nucleus, LPO: lateral preoptic area, PVH: paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus, PVHd: PVH descending division, ARH: arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, and DG: dentate gyrus.
