Additional effect of premorbid TS-exposure and TBI on general motor activity such as resting time. (A) Intergroup rest time comparison prior TBI shows the effect of chronic TS exposure on motor activity. In this specific case, the increased rest time observed in smoke and smoke + TBI animal groups well match the increased motor activity (distance traveled) previously assessed. (Panel B1 to B3) TS increases rest time of animals undergoing TBI at 24- and 72-h post injury when compared vs TBI alone. (Panel D) Side by side longitudinal assessment of rest time between the 4 test groups. n = 6 biological replicates for each experimental group. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001 vs. control. ##p < 0.0, ####p < 0.0001 vs. smoke. @p < 0.05, @@p < 0.01, @@@p < 0.001 vs. TBI
