The effect of α7nAchR in the hippocampus on the body mass and behavioral experiments of CUMS rats intervened by taVNS at different time points. a2 Comparison of body weight of rats at different time points. (b2) Comparison of SPT of rats at different time points. c2 Comparison of horizontal movement scores of rats in OFT at different time points. d2 Comparison of vertical movement scores of rats in OFT at different time points. e2 Comparison of immobility time of rats in FST at different time points. The values are presented as mean ± SD. One-way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc test was performed for statistical analysis. **P < 0.01 vs. the control group, ***P < 0.001 vs. the control group; and P < 0.05 vs. the Hi MLA + taVNS group, &&P < 0.01 vs. the Hi MLA + taVNS group (n = 10 per group)
