Prefrontal cortex BDNF levels in stressed or non-stressed rats subjected to SP, EX, EE and combined treatment. Chronic stress reduced prefrontal cortex BDNF, and alone treatment EX and EE and combined treatment of SP + EE and SP + EX restored this deficit. Data are expressed as the mean±S.E.M. #p = 0.01 than the corresponding control group; p = 0.01, ††p = 0.001 †††p = 0.0001 than the stressed group; φφφp<0.0001 SP + EE than the stress group treated with SP, EX, EE and SP+EX. **p = 0.001; ***p = 0.0001 than the control group.

Abbreviations: SP, Spirulina platensis; EX, voluntary exercise; EE, enriched environment.
