Title | Quercetin modulates the liver metabolic profile in a chronic unpredictable mild stress rat model based on metabolomics technology |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to explore the protective effect of quercetin against chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS)-induced metabolic changes and the corresponding mechanisms in the rat liver based on untargeted metabolomics technology. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 4 groups (n = 16 in each group): (1) control group (no stress, with vehicle treatment), (2) CUMS group (stress, with vehicle treatment), (3) quercetin group (no stress, with quercetin treatment), and (4) CUMS + quercetin group (stress, with quercetin treatment). The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 8 weeks, and quercetin (50 mg/kg) was administered via intragastric once per day during the model building period. Liver samples (n = 10/per group) were collected for untargeted metabolomics analysis. |
