B[a]P exposed mouse displayed cognitive impairments. (A) The escape latency over the course of a 5-day training period. (B) Number of platform crossings, (C) time to first entry by each group of mice during the spatial probe trial. (D) Representative path maps for each group in MWM test. (E) Representative path maps in Y-maze test, the blue arm means the novel arm. (F) The number of times each group of mice entered the novel arm. (G) The proportion of time spent in the novel arm of the Y-maze by different groups during the test. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 10), *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus Control (Ctrl) group, #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus High-dose group.
