Excitatory and inhibitory populations of c-Fos-positive cells in the preoptic area associated with nest-building in females. (a, b) The number of c-Fos and Vgat double-positive cells in the MPOA (a), LPOA (b) in the nest-building group and ad lib ZT6 group. (c, d) The number of c-Fos and Vglut2 double-positive cells in the MPOA (c) and LPOA (d) in the nest-building group and ad lib ZT6 group. (MPOA and LPOA: nest-building, n = 6; ad lib ZT6, n = 5). Welch's t-test. Data are shown as the mean ± s.e.m.
