Effects of ketamine (Ket) and guanosine (GUO), and pretreatment with rapamycin (RAP), on the open field (OFT) and novel object recognition test (NORT) in Sham and OBX mice. OFT and NORT were performed 48 h after treatments. (a) experimental design; OFT was conducted 90 min before NORT training, and test performed 90 min post training. Left column: OFT: distance travelled by naïve, Sham and OBX groups (b), effects of Ket and GUO (c), effects of RAP pretreatment (d). Middle column: NORT training: naïve, Sham and OBX groups (e), effects of Ket or GUO (f), effects of RAP pre-treatment (g) groups. Left column: NORT test: naïve, Sham and OBX groups (h), effects of Ket or GUO (i), effects of RAP pre-treatment (j). Inserts represent locomotor activity. One-way ANOVA/Tukey´s was used to compare the Naïve, Sham and OBX groups (n = 8–20). FO = familiar object; NO = novel object Distance travelled by Sham or OBX groups in OFT and NORT were analyzed by two-way ANOVA/Tukey. Data with RAP pre-treatment were analyzed by three-way ANOVA/Tukey for distance travelled and three-way ANOVA/Sidak for NORT, n = 12–20. Columns represent mean ± S.E.M. * p < 0.05, * p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 compared to the respective Sham group.
