Title | Urinary metabolomics analysis of the anti-depressive effects of Hemerocallis citrina extracts in a simulated microgravity-induced rat model of depression |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to identify the metabolic products and metabolic pathways of Hemerocallis citrina extracts antidepressant and elucidate its mechanism, which might provide a theoretical foundation for the application of H. citrina in the treatment of depression. The depression model of rats was induced by 14-d simulated microgravity (SMG) treatment. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 4 groups (n = 8 in each group): (1) control group, (2) SMG group (simulated microgravity), (3) SMG + Hemerocallis citrina extracts group (simulated microgravity plus Hemerocallis citrina extracts treatment at the dose of 8 g/kg), and (4) SMG + paroxetine group (simulated microgravity plus paroxetine treatment at the dose of 10 mg/kg). The SMG stress procedure lasted for 14 days, and drugs were administered via intragastric after stress until the 39th day. Six urine samples per group were used for metabonomic analysis. |
