Rescue-like behaviour test towards two cage-mates constrained inside tubes. (A–C) Schematic diagrams of the tests. (C) Two tubes containing cage-mate mice on one side of the cage. Rescue-like behaviour test for two cage-mates: latency to lid-opening (D), number of entries to the tubes (E), and time spent in tubes (F) in this test. (G) Schematic diagram of the rescue-like behaviour test with two subject mice. (H) Comparison of the latency to lid-opening. Statistical significance is represented as: †p < 0.1 and *p < 0.05. n.s., not significant. The p values were calculated by one-way repeated measures ANOVA (D–F,H). n = 10 animals per test.
