Effects of Persimmon leaf extract (PLE) on cortical levels of cortical cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in mice exposed to chronic social defeat stress (CSDS). a cAMP levels. b Examples of original Western blot bands showing cortical expression of p-CREB and BDNF. c Relative levels of p-CREB. d Relative levels of BDNF. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3 in each group). **P < 0.01 vs. Vehicle group; #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 vs. CSDS + Vehicle group
