Elevated plus maze performance of gonadectomized (GDX) and intact KISS1R-KO mice. Different letters above histograms indicate statistically significant differences between GDX control (N = 9), GDX KISS1R-KO (N = 7), intact control (N = 8) and intact KISS1R-KO rescue (N = 9) mice. (A) Histograms showing the percentage of time mice spent in the open arms of the maze. b = P < 0.01, Tukey’s post-hoc multiple comparisons against all other groups. (B) Histograms showing the percentage of time mice spent in the center of the maze. a. vs b. = P < 0.05, Tukey’s post-hoc multiple comparisons against GDX groups. (C) Histograms showing the percentage of time mice spent in the closed arms. b = P < 0.05, Tukey’s post-hoc multiple comparisons against KISS1R-KO groups. (D) Summary providing a comparison of percentage of time spent in all three compartments for each group.
