DMNV: dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve; HYTH: hypothalamus; VMED: ventral medulla; TEGM: tegmentum; SEPT: septal area; SUBN: substantia nigra; CBEL: cerebellum; THAL: thalamus; STRI: corpus striatum/rhinencephalon; CCTX: cerebral cortex; AP: area postrema; ME: median eminence; SFO: sub-fornical organ; OVLT: organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis.
Positive/exam.: positive/examined.
* In the left column (“all examined”), average magnitudes (Av. mag.) are calculated including zero values of PrPd negative brain areas; in the right column (“positives”), only the values of PrPd positive brain areas are considered.
