Effect of RF duration of 5-min and 2-min with HFD at ZT 5 on caloric intake, locomotor activity, and FST immobility time at ZT 1 (Experiment 5). (A) Average caloric intake of total, ND, and HFD under each feeding condition. (B) The FST immobility time at ZT 1. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM (control group, n = 6; NES-5 min and 2 min groups, n = 7). (C) Relative locomotor activity rhythm under each feeding condition. Red and orange triangles represent the commencement of RF. Open and closed bars indicate light and dark periods, respectively. (D) Sum of relative locomotor activity during ZT 5 and 9. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM (control group, n = 6; NES-5 min and 2 min groups, n = 4). *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 (one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparison test); †††p < 0.001 (Student’s t-test). #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 the NES-5 min vs. the control group; $p < 0.05 the NES-2 min vs. the control group (Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn’s multiple comparison test).
