Increased time spent in, and number of crosses into, the illuminated chamber of the Light/Dark Box by Aldh2−/− mice fed the D-PUFA diet for 10 weeks. Mice were placed into the dark side of the light/dark box chamber and allowed to explore for a 5 min period. The number of crosses between the light and dark sides of the chamber, and the total time spent in the light side were recorded. Data are presented as means ± s.d. (n=16 for D-PUFA and n=13 for H-PUFA) and were analyzed by Student’s t-test for unpaired data. *, significant difference from D-PUFA (*p<0.05).
