The number of c-Fos-immuoreactive neurons. The mean number of c-Fos-immuoreactive neurons in response to injection of formalin in lamina II-III (L II-III) and lamina V-VI (L V-VI) of the rostral anterior cingulate cortex (rACC), the central nucleus of amygdale (CeA), the paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN), the lateral PAG (lPAG), the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG), the nucleus raphe magnus (NRM), the locus coeruleus (LC) and the lumbar spinal dorsal horn (SDH). Black, white and gray bars indicate the result of control mice, mice exposed to lemon oil and mice exposed to the cat urine respectively. Each value represents the mean ± S.E. *P < 0.05 compared to the control group.
