Figure 6. Effects of restraint stress on plasma ACTH and corticosterone levels in mice reconstituted with SPF faeces.

Figure 6

SPF flora-reconstituted mice were established by orally introducing fresh SPF mouse faeces into the GF mice at either 1 or 3 weeks before they were subjected to the stress protocol. Restraint stress was applied to these reconstituted mice at 9 (A) and 17 weeks of age (B) (n = 18–24 per group). **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 by Dunnett's post hoc test.
