Maternal sleep deprivation increased depressive-like behavior in the forced swimming task. a The offspring of ESD (n = 12) and LSD (n = 20), but not MSD (n = 18), showed significantly shorter latency to immobility than control (n = 18) during forced swimming test. b The duration of total immobility was much longer in the offspring of ESD and LSD, but not MSD, than control. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. control; ns = no significant difference
