Schematic diagram of the experimental procedure. Flow diagrams of the experimental procedures for (a) behavioral comparisons of nulliparous, nonlactating primiparous, and lactating primiparous females of four inbred strains (C57BL/6J, C57BL/6JJcl, BALB/cAnNCrlCrlj, and BALB/cAJcl) of mice and for (b) behavioral analysis of nulliparous and lactating primiparous BALB/cAJcl females previously exposed to chronic restraint stress (CRS, for 6 h/day for 21 days). Behavioral analysis of female mice was performed using the light/dark transition (LD) test, the open field (OF) test, the elevated plus maze (EP) test, the Porsolt forced swim (PS) test, the tail suspension (TS) test, and the sucrose preference (SP) test
