Title

A urinary metabolomics (GC-MS) strategy to evaluate the antidepressant-like effect of chlorogenic acid in adrenocorticotropic hormonetreated rats

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the antidepressant-like effects of chlorogenic acid (CGA) on an adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-treated rat model. Rats were divided into the following 4 groups (n = 8 in each group): (1) control group, (2) ACTH group, (3) ACTH + memantine group (ACTH plus memantine treatment at the dose of 30 mg/kg i.g.), and (4) ACTH + CGA group (ACTH plus CGA treatment at the dose of 500 mg/kg i.g.). Each rat in these three groups received s.c. injection of ACTH at a dose of 100 mg per rat for 14 days. Sucrose preference tests (SPTs) and open-field tests (OFTs) were performed to evaluate depressive-like behaviors. Non-target urinary metabolomic strategy based on GC-MS detection was applied on the profiling of global metabolomic character of ACTH-treated rats as well as ACTH-treated rats administrated with memantine and CGA. Six samples per group were used for metabonomic analysis.
