“…The other brains were cryoprotected with 30% sucrose, frozen with liquid nitrogen, sectioned (15-µmthick) in the same planes on a cryostat, and processed according to the immunoperoxidase technique. Briefly, sections were incubated with one of the primary antisera raised in rabbits against GABA (Chemicon, Temecula, CA; Affinity, Mamhead, U.K.; or Sigma; Pombal et al, 1997; dilution, 1:1,000 to 1:2,000), 5-HT (Zhang et al, 1996; dilution 1:1,000), SP ; dilution 1:2,000), CR (7696, Swant, Bellinzona, Switzerland;Schwaller et al, 1993; dilution, 1:1,000), NPY (Sigma; dilution, 1:600), or galanin (Jiménez et al, 1996; dilution 1:1,500). They were subsequently incubated with goat anti-rabbit (Dakopatts, Glostrup, Denmark; dilution, 1:60) and rabbit peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex (Dakopatts; dilution, 1:300).…”
