Distribution of orexin-1 receptor-green fluorescent protein- (OX1 -GFP) expressing neurons in the mouse brain stem and pons: Co-localization with tyrosine hydroxylase and neuronal nitric oxide synthase

Highlights • OX1 receptors are expressed in the mouse medulla and pons. • OX1 receptor expression greatest in the locus coeruleus and dorsal raphe nucleus. • Extensive co-expression of OX1 receptors and tyrosine hydroxylase was observed. • OX1 and NOS1 co-localization most prominent in the pedunculo...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • OX1 receptors are expressed in the mouse medulla and pons. • OX1 receptor expression greatest in the locus coeruleus and dorsal raphe nucleus. • Extensive co-expression of OX1 receptors and tyrosine hydroxylase was observed. • OX1 and NOS1 co-localization most prominent in the pedunculopontine tegmental area.
