Title

[Analysis on endogenous metabolites in cecal tissue of CUMS-induced depression rats after Xiaoyao San intervention by GC-MS metabolomics]

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of endogenous metabolites in cecal tissue of chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) -induced depression rat model interfered by Xiaoyao San via GC-MS metabolomics. CUMS rat model was used and Xiaoyao San and fluoxetine hydrochloride (fluoxetine) treatment were intervention drug. Rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 6 in each group): (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, (3) CUMS + fluoxetine group (stress plus fluoxetine treatment at the dose of 6 mg/kg), (4) CUMS + Xiaoyaosan group (stress plus Xiaoyaosan treatment at the dose of 46.2 g/kg). The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 4 weeks, and drugs were administered via gastric intubation once per day during the model building period.
