Abbreviations: BDNF, brain-derived neurotrophic factor; 5HMC, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine; 5MC, 5-methylcytosine; NS, nonstressed; PRS, prenatally stressed.

The Pearson correlation was established in a cohort of 24 animals including 6 control (NS) mice receiving vehicle, 6 NS mice receiving clozapine, 6 PRS mice receiving vehicle, 6 PRS mice receiving clozapine. Bolded entries show significantly significant P-values.
