Depressive-like behavioral effect of BCG in the sucrose preference test. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with either saline or BCG (107 CFU/mouse) and their relative sucrose intake, expressed as percent bodyweight, was measured (A) overnight during 8 consecutive days post-BCG (n = 10 mice/treatment), or (B) once only, 21 days post-BCG (n = 7 mice/treatment). Values represent means ± sem of 10 mice/group. ***p < .001; **p < .01 for the effect of treatment (BCG vs. saline).
