Meranzin hydrate, an absorbed bioactive compound from the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Chaihu-Shugan-San (CSS), possess anti-depression and anti-atherosclerosis effects.
体内研究
Meranzin hydrate (9-18 mg/kg; single dose) can improve depression like behavior and bradykinesia induced by acute forced swimming in rats by regulating the BDNF/p-mTOR signaling pathway and HTB loop activity related to growth hormone releasing peptide in the hippocampus.
Meranzin hydrate (18 mg/kg; single dose) can reduce depressive like behavior in wild-type mice based on FST and TST test results [1].
Meranzin hydrate (18 mg/kg; single dose) did not alleviate depression like behavior in GHSR knockout mice when evaluated by FST and TST results [1].
Meranzin hydrate (10 mg/kg; gavage; Daily; Significant antidepressant like and anti anxiety like effects were observed in chronic unpredictable mild stress (UCMS) induced depression rats for 7 consecutive days, which restored normal hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis function, increased expression of hippocampal brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and repaired UCMS induced abnormal blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) activation in the reward and limbic systems.
Animal Model:
Sprague-Dawley (8 rats per group; acute forced swimming-induced model)[1]
Dosage:
9 mg/kg; 18 mg/kg
Administration:
single dose
Result:
Improved depression-like behavior (FST, OFT) and hypomotility (GE, IT) (all P<0.05).
Significantly stimulated BDNF and p-mTOR protein expressions in the hippocampus (both P<0.01).
Modulated activity in the hippocampus-thalamus-basal ganglia (HTB) circuits as measured by BOLD foci.
Had its effect on FST and GE inhibited by ghrelin antagonist [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6 (P<0.05).
Had its stimulation of hippocampal BDNF and p-mTOR expressions prevented by [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6 (P<0.01).
Had its modulation of HTB circuit activity inhibited by [D-Lys3]-GHRP-6.
Animal Model:
Wild-type (8 mice per group)
Dosage:
18 mg/kg
Administration:
single dose
Result:
Alleviated depression-like behavior (FST, TST) in wild-type mice.
Significantly reduced immobility time in the forced swimming test (P < 0.001 vs UCMS group).
Significantly increased sucrose preference index (P < 0.01 vs UCMS group).
Significantly increased total distance travelled in the open-field test (P < 0.01 vs UCMS group).
Significantly reduced plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (P < 0.05 vs UCMS group), corticosterone (CORT) (P < 0.01 vs UCMS group), and acylated ghrelin (AG) (P < 0.01 vs UCMS group) levels, normalizing them to near control levels.
Significantly increased brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (P < 0.01 vs UCMS group).
Attenuated UCMS-induced increased BOLD activation in reward system and limbic system brain regions, including the striatum, septal area, thalamus lateral nucleus group, bed nucleus of stria terminalis, hippocampus, midbrain superior colliculus, nucleus accumbens, and third ventricle.
Increased BOLD activation in the right auditory cortex, right amygdaloid body, left sensory cortex, right third ventricle, and left temporal association cortex.
Reversed UCMS-induced changes in BOLD signals in the right amygdaloid body and right visual cortex, and decreased BOLD signals in bilateral hypothalamus preoptic regions.
