Cellular Signal Mechanisms of Reward-Related Plasticity in the Hippocampus
Figure 3
Phosphorylation of NR1 subunit of the NMDA receptor (pNR1) was immunohistochemically detected using an antibody. pNR1 immunoreactivity increased in response to ghrelin (b) when compared with control (a). This effect was blocked by the antagonist of the ghrelin receptor, L-Dys3-GHSR (c). Calibcation: 5 μm. Adopted and modified from Cuellar and Isokawa [24].
