Fig. (4) Combined treatment with paroxetine plus VD₃ corrects depression-like behavior in FST of long-term OVX rats exposed to CUMS. A – Immobility time, sec, B – Swimming time, sec, C – Climbing time, sec. * P − < 0.05 versus the control group, # − P < 0.05 versus the SHAM group exposed to CUMS, $ − P < 0.05 versus the OVX group subjected to CUMS, $$ − P < 0.05 versus the OVX group subjected to CUMS treated with fluoxetine or paroxetine, respectively. The data are presented as mean ± SD; n = 7 in each group.
