Title

Combined metabolomics and proteomics analysis of major depression in an animal model: perturbed energy metabolism in the chronic mild stressed rat cerebellum

Overall design

In this study, the chronic mild stress (CMS) rat model of depression was used to reveal the individual differences in stress response. Employing a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry metabolomic approach, the molecular changes associated with stress resilience in rat cerebellum were characterized by comparing anhedonic, CMS resilient and control groups. The initial experimental group contained 81 rats. Rats were divided into 2 groups: (1) control group and (2) CUMS group. The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 4 weeks. Eight samples per group were used for metabonomic analysis.
