Reference: Broberger C., De Lecea L., Sutcliffe J.G. & Hokfelt T., 1998:
Experiment acronym: Broberger-H/O-MCH
Data types:
   quantitative
Mapping approach:
   brain region is captured in original published nomenclature, in BAMS
Mapping details
Coordinates: none
Anatomical data presentation:
   text

   representative images with label and drawn boundaries
   representative drawings/mappings onto templates
Animals (subjects):
   Number: 10   Sex: not specified
   Age: not specified   Weight: 250-300g
   Housing conditions: not specified
   Annotation: normal housing
Method:
Neuron/glia identification method: stain specific
Staining frequency: 1:10
Technique: in situ hybridization
Measurement 1:
Measured nucleic acid: mRNA
Source (producer): Scandinavian Gene Synthesis, Koping, Sweden).
Probe sequence: 479-527 MCH nucleotides
Sequence species: rat
Probe sequence orientation: antisense
Control: sense
Labelling method: radiolabelling
Visualization method: autoradiogram

Annotation: Probes complementary to nucleotides 479-527 of the rat MCH mRNA(Nahon et al., 1989) and to nucleotides 2-49 of the rat H/O mRNA(Sakurai et al., 1998) were synthesized (Scandinavian Gene Synthesis, Ko¨ping, Sweden). Probe sequences were controlled against other sequences in the GenBank database, and no homologies exceeding 75% were found.
