Figure 3. Fluoxetine inhibited depressive-like behavior in tumor bearing mice.
Control and tumor-bearing mice were administered fluoxetine in the drinking water starting one day after tumor cell injection. A) Home cage activity was determined 13 days after tumor inoculation. Control and tumor mice were exposed to the forced swim test (FST) at 13 days and B) latency to become immobile and C) total time immobile (n=12) were analyzed using ANOVA. Bars represent the mean ± SEM. Means with * are different from control (p<0.05).
