Title | Hepatic metabolomics combined with network pharmacology to reveal the correlation between the anti-depression effect and nourishing blood effect of Angelicae Sinensis Radix |
Overall design | In this study, hepatic metabolomics and network pharmacology were combined to explore the underlying antidepressive mechanisms of Angelicae Sinensis Radix in the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model of depression. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 5 groups (n = 10 in each group): (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, (3) CUMS + venlafaxine group (stressor plus venlafaxine treatment), (4) CUMS + low dose of Angelicae Sinensis Radix group (stressor plus Angelicae Sinensis Radix treatment at the dose of 3.6 g/kg), and (5) CUMS + high dose of Angelicae Sinensis Radix group (stressor plus Angelicae Sinensis Radix treatment at the dose of 7.2 g/kg). After treatment for 28 days, liver samples were used for metabonomic analysis. |
