Title | Rhodioloside ameliorates depressive behavior via up-regulation of monoaminergic system activity and anti-inflammatory effect in olfactory bulbectomized rats |
Overall design | In this study, the olfactory bulbectomized model was used to investigate the antidepressant-like effect of Rhodioloside. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 5 groups (n = 8 in each group): (1) control group (sham olfactory bulbectomized rats), (2) olfactory bulbectomized group (olfactory bulbectomized rats), (3) olfactory bulbectomized + amitriptyline group (olfactory bulbectomized rats with amitriptyline treatment at the dose of 10 mg/kg), (4) olfactory bulbectomized + low dose of Rhodioloside group (olfactory bulbectomized rats with Rhodioloside treatment at the dose of 20 mg/kg), and (5) olfactory bulbectomized + high dose of Rhodioloside group (olfactory bulbectomized rats with Rhodioloside treatment at the dose of 40 mg/kg). After stress, rats were recovered for 2 weeks, and then treated for 2 weeks. The serotonin and norepinephrine levels in prefrontal cortex of rats were measured (n = 5 per group). |
