Figure 2.
Strong inverse correlation between body posture angle in water and immobility. (a) Significant difference in the fractions of total immobile time (Fim) of WT (n=22) and Gabra5+/− (n=24) mice. (b) Two immobile mice with different angles (α) in water. White lines indicate how the angles were measured. Pictures of mice were taken in experiments shown in e and f. (c) Significant difference in α of WT and Gabra5+/− mice. (d) Fim plotted as a function of α shows a strong inverse correlation between α and Fim. (e and f) Significant difference in Fim (e) and α (f) of mice with water (Water, n=11) or 1% soap solution (Part soap, n=11) applied to their caudal areas. WT, wild-type.
