Title

Chaihu-Shugan-San ameliorates tumor growth in prostate cancer promoted by depression via modulating sphingolipid and glycerinphospholipid metabolism

Overall design

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Chaihu-Shugan-San on stress-accelerated prostate cancer in a BALB/C nude mice model. For prostate cancer model, 10^6 PC-3 tumor cells were subcutaneously injected into the flank of the BALB/c nude mice. For stress, chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) was used as depression model. BALB/c nude mice were divided into the following 3 groups (n = 6 in each group): (1) tumor-bearing group (tumor-bearing mice, without stress), (2) CUMS + tumor-bearing group (tumor-bearing mice, with stress), and (3) CUMS + tumor-bearing + Chaihu-Shugan-San group (tumor-bearing mice, with stress and Chaihu-Shugan-San treatment at the dose of 9.6 g/kg). The CUMS mice were restrained for 3 weeks before tumor transplantation, and continued to be restrained daily for 6 weeks. Chaihu-Shugan-San was administrated via intragastric once per day for 6 weeks started at the time of inoculating PC-3 cells. Serum samples were used for LC-MS lipidomics analysis.
