Effects of Panax ginseng extract (PGE) on the body weight gain, depressive-like behaviors, and serum levels of corticosterone and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). (A) Time course and (B) sum of body weight gain during chronic restraint stress (CRS) and PGE treatment. Immobility time in the (C) forced swimming test (FST) and (D) tail suspension test (TST). Serum levels of (E) ACTH and (F) corticosterone by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis. The results are expressed as the mean ± SE. ANOVA test; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 CRS vs. sham or PGE alone group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 CRS + PGE vs. CRS group. ANOVA, analysis of variance.
