Title | The alteration of gut microbiota in venlafaxine-ameliorated chronic unpredictable mild stress-induced depression in mice |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to investigate the alterations of venlafaxine on neurotransmitter levels in a mouse model of chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS)-induced depression. C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following 3 groups (n = 10 in each group): (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, and (3) CUMS + venlafaxine group (stressor plus venlafaxine treatment at the dose of 12.5 mg/kg). The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 5 weeks, and drugs were administered via intragastric once per day during the last 2 weeks of the model building period. The serum and hippocampus of mice were collected to extract neurotransmitters for LC-MS/MS. |
