The status of anxiety in XY^RIIIqdel and XY^RIII mice was evaluated by open field test before and after the exposure of the stressors. Before the mice have undergone stress paradigm, the status of anxiety did not differ from the wild type as shown by scatter bar plot (A), whereas in the same test they showed significantly more anxiety phenotype by spending remarkably less time in center on stress response (B). Combined bar graph is shown to compare the effect of before and after stress (C). Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM, *P < 0.05, n = 8–10 per group in before stress, n = 6–8 per group in after stress experiments.
