Title

Plasma metabolomics and network pharmacology identified glutamate, glutamine, and arginine as biomarkers of depression under Shuganjieyu capsule treatment

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Shuganjieyu capsule treatment on depression and search for essential metabolites. In this study, 23 patients with depression (depression group) and 26 age- and gender-matched healthy controls (control group) were recruited. Patients in the depression group were treated with Shuganjieyu capsule for 8 weeks. Plasma was subjected to 1H NMR metabolomics analysis.
