ChATKD hearts are more susceptible to stress and depression. a Blood corticosterone levels measured in the morning are higher in ChATKD hearts than in control hearts (P = 0.0002). b Both FST and TST tests reveal that ChATKD mice show more depression-like symptoms than control mice (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively); in contrast, the ChAT tg mice are more resistant to a depression-like episode than control mice (P < 0.01)
