Figure 1 Gastric antrum tissue staining procedure include: (1) pretreatment with 0. 25% Triton X-100; (2) incubation in the primary antibody of rMCP-1; (3) incubation with secondary antibody (Cy3 -conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG). A: Expression of rMCP-1 in the normal control group; B: Expression of rMCP-1 in the fluoxetine + normal control group; C: Expression of rMCP-1 in the depressed model control group; D: Expression of rMCP-1 in the saline + depressed model group; E: Expression of rMCP-1 in the fluoxetine + depressed model group.

Figure 3 Photograph and the average level of rMCP-1 mRNA of rat gastric antrum by RT-PCR among groups. A: Control group; B: Fluoxetine + control group; C: Depressed model group; D: Saline + depressed model group; E: Fluoxetine + depressed model group; bP < 0.01 vs normal control group; dP < 0.01 vs depressed model control group. rMCP-1: rat mast cell protease-1.
