From: Study of gene function based on spatial co-expression in a high-resolution mouse brain atlas
Gene expression of Avp, Hcrt, and Pmch. While little difference in expression among these genes is shown in the GNF mouse tissue atlas, the ABA images offer a better resolution and suggest Avp may play a different biological role than Hcrt and Pmch. The black boxes outline the brain hypothalamus region. Avp expression is concentrated in a specific hypothalamus region called periventricular region, while expressions of Hcrt and Pmch are largely concentrated in a different hypothalamus region called lateral hypothalamic area. Brain images were obtained from the ABA database and the tissue gene expression data were obtained from GNF SymAtlas.
