Effect of Acute Stressor and Serotonin Transporter Genotype on Amygdala First Wave Transcriptome in Mice
Figure 2
Corticosterone stress hormone concentration.
Trunk blood samples were taken 130 sec after the mice were either being placed for 1 min in 21°C water (acute stress) or left untouched in the home-cage for 1 min (control). Bars represent the mean concentration, whiskers express SEM. An ANOVA revealed no significant effect of genotype (F1,26 = 2.36, P = 0.14) but a trend for increased stress hormone concentrations in mice subjected to acute stress (F1,26 = 3.21, P = 0.085).
