<p>A. Scheme demonstrating the experimental setup. Intra-cerebral cannulae were confined to the lateral hypothalamic region (B2) an example of which is shown in B1. Cumulative measurements of food intake showed that DHβE-infused animals consumed more food 2 hours post ad libitum food access following a 12 hour fast (C) (saline, n = 8; 20 μg DHβE, n = 7). Abbreviations: mt, mammillothalamic tract; f, fornix.</p
