Figure 3.
Effect of 2-Cl-4,5-MDMA and 3,4-MDPHP administration on plasma corticosterone levels in male and female rats. Corticosterone levels measured in plasma (expressed as nanograms per milliliter of plasma) of male and female rats at the end of the self-administration training. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM of values from 7 to 12 rats per group (males: saline, n = 7; 2-Cl-4,5-MDMA, n = 10; 3,4-MDPHP, n = 11; females: saline, n = 8; 2-Cl-4,5-MDMA, n = 12; 3,4-MDPHP, n = 8). * p < 0.001 and ** p < 0.0001 vs. the respective 3,4-MDPHP-treated group; # p < 0.01 and ## p < 0.0001 vs. the respective female group; two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
