Title

Edaravone ameliorates depressive and anxiety-like behaviors via Sirt1/Nrf2/HO-1/Gpx4 pathway

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the antidepressant activity of edaravone and its underlying mechanisms. A chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) depression model was performed to explore whether edaravone could produce antidepressant effects. C57BL/6J mice were divided into the following 3 groups (n = 10 in each group): (1) control group, (2) CSDS group (social defeat stress with vehicle treatment), and (3) CSDS + edaravone group (social defeat stress with edaravone treatment at the dose of 10 mg/kg). The CSDS stress procedure lasted for 10 days, and edaravone was administered intraperitoneally once per day for 10 days after the model building period. Hippocampal and medial prefrontal cortex tissues were collected for targeted energy metabolomics analysis (n = 6/group).
