  1. Table shows the correlations between locomotion in the center zone in the open field test and the whole area of the brain section at AP 2.28 mm from bregma or density of CCK positive neurons in CA2 in LETO and OLETF rats. CCK: cholecystokinin. Statistical significance is represented by asterisks: *p < 0.05, and **p < 0.01
