Effects of G. japonicum extract on the (A) tail suspension test (TST) and (B) forced swim test (FST) in CORT-induced depressive mice. CORT injections significantly increased the immobility time (s), while treatment with 100 and 300 mg/kg G. japonicum extract significantly decreased it. Results are presented as mean ± SEM. # p < 0.05 versus the sham group; *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, and * p < 0.05 versus the CORT-injected control group (Con).
