Effect of L7Gn (0.3, 1, and 3 mg/kg) on plasma corticosterone levels in sleep-deprived mice. L7Gn was dissolved in 70% PEG-saline, and FXT was dissolved in 0.9% physiological saline. Mice were administered vehicle (70% PEG), L7Gn (0.3, 1, and 3 mg/kg) or FXT (20 mg/kg) once daily for five days (one-way ANOVA: F (5, 25) = 2.247, p = 0.0809). Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 5–6/group). * p < 0.05, significantly different from the control group. # p < 0.05, significantly different from the vehicle group. CTL, control; Veh, vehicle; FXT, fluoxetine.
