The comprehensive graph title integrates the behavioral differences between Sapap3 KO mice and WT mice under different conditions, including grooming behavior, and anxiety-like behavior. Specifically, Part A highlights the grooming time of WT and KO mice under different light conditions (p < 0.05). Among them, AD represents environmental factors (A under light aversion stimulation and D under dark conditions). Parts B and C reveal the sex differences in grooming behavior. Among them, F represents the female and M represents the male. Part D and Part E describes the anxiety levels of mice. Part D shows the differences in exploration behavior and assesses the total distance in the opening test. Among them, the WT mice under dark conditions were WTD, the Sapap3 KO mice under dark conditions were KOD, the WT mice under light aversion stimulation were WTA, and the Sapap3 KO mice under light aversion stimulation were KOA. Part E shows the number of standing episodes and the immobility duration. * indicates p < 0.05, ** indicates p < 0.01, and *** indicates p < 0.0001.
