L. plantarum WLPL04 treatment alleviates the cognitive dysfunctions in chronically stressed mice. (a) Diagram of Barnes maze. (b), (c) Chronic stress impairs spatial memory but not spatial learning in the Barnes maze, and such memory deficit is rescued by the L. plantarum WLPL04 treatment. (d) Chronic stress impairs the novel/familiar object recognition, and such deficit is reversed by the L. plantarum WLPL04 treatment. nā€‰=ā€‰7 mice per group.
