Title

Gut microbiome and tissue metabolomics reveal the compatibility effects of Xiaoyaosan on depression based on "gut-liver-kidney" axis

Overall design

The aim of this study was to reveal the compatibility of Xiaoyaosan from the perspective of “gut-liver-kidney” axis in the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model of depression. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 5 groups: (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, (3) CUMS + Xiaoyaosan group (stressor plus Xiaoyaosan treatment (4) CUMS + Shugan group (stressor plus Shugan treatment), and (5) CUMS + Jianpi group (stressor plus Jianpi treatment). The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 4 weeks, and drugs were administered via intragastric during the model building period. Kidney tissues were analyzed by NMR-based metabolomics (n = 6/group).
