Figure 5

The serum biochemical levels in the Vogel conflict test ((a) for CROT and (b) for 5-HT). The aqueous extract of asparagus stem (AEAS) and diazepam (DZP). The percent of open arm entries to the total number of arm entries (OE). The percent of time spent in the open arm to the total time in the open and close arms (OT). The dose of aqueous extract of asparagus stem 0.6 g/kg (AEAS-l). The dose of aqueous extract of asparagus stem 1.5 g/kg (AEAS-m). The dose of aqueous extract of asparagus stem 3.0 g/kg (AEAS-h), Cortisol (CORT), and 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HT). statistically significant difference from control; statistically significant difference from model.
