A scheme of the BLA, CeA, patched regions, and the stimulation electrode placement. Contours adapted from Allen Brain Atlas. For CeM, N saline = 13 (39), N cocaine = 9 (26), N water = 9 (30), N sugar = 10 (38); and CeL, N saline = 6 (19); N cocaine = 8 (30); N water = 6 (34), N sugar = 6 (25), where N = number of mice (total number of cells).*p < 0.05;***p < 0.001. Statistical significance was evaluated by the unpaired t test with p values for CeM, water vs. sugar = 0.0005, saline vs. cocaine = 0.0242; and for CeL, saline vs. cocaine = 0.0187. The data are shown as mean SEM.
