The Effect of Inhibition of Perisynaptic Astrocyte Glycogen Utilization on Depression-Like Behavior
CONCLUSION: The inhibition of glycogen use in the hippocampus by DAB did not affect anxiety-like and depression-like behaviors 3 and 5 days after injection in both female and male mice.

The increase seen in the sucrose preference test in female experimental group mice was not interpreted as an increase in hedonic beh...
