Effects of optogenetic stimulation of BF cholinergic neurons on behavioral deficits in PIL mice A Olfactory sensitivity test. Quantitative analysis of total time spent sniffing male feces, female feces, vinegar or alcohol. B Elevated zero maze test. Left panel showing representative track plots of the path. Right panel showing quantitative analysis of total track distance and percentage of time spent in the open arms (%). C Forced swim test. Quantitative analysis of immobility time. The data are expressed as the mean ± SEM (n = 12 in each group). One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test: ## p < 0.01 compared to the control group, * p < 0.05 or ** p < 0.01 compared to the PIL group
