(a) Immunofluorescent photomicrographs from the sections of the ARCN and PVN region stained for the leptin receptor (red), neuronal marker microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2 in green), and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI in blue) in a control and a T2D rat. (b) Immunofluorescent photomicrographs from the sections of the ARCN and PVN region stained for the leptin receptor (red), glial marker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP in green), and DAPI (blue) in a control and a T2D rat. Bar = 100 μm.
