Illustration of detailed experimental protocol

Note: EPM, elevated plus maze test; PFT, pole fall test; HWT, hanging wire test. *Training Phase: All the animals were trained in elevated plus maze test to move from open arm to closed arm (Transfer latency) on day 5, 6 and 7. In pole fall test (PFT) and hanging wire test (HWT) all the animals were trained only on Day 7. †Evaluation on Day 9: All the animals were evaluated in elevated plus maze test for transfer latency (memory); While the fall off time in seconds were evaluated for all the animals in pole fall test and hanging wire test (motor coordination).
