Experimental Research on Nutmeg Wuwei Pills Against of Depression Model Rat Behavior and Hippocampus Monoamine Neurotransmitters
Objective: To observe the effect of Nutmeg Wuwei pills on the depressive behavior and the monoamine neurotransmitters of depression rat model andexplore the mechanism. Method: Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group
model group
fluoxetine group(3.6 mg·kg-1) and Nutmeg Wuwei pills low
medium and high dose groups(0.2
0.4
0.8 g·kg-1)
10 rats in each group. After 21 days
behavior evaluation was made through observing the rats weight
open-field experiment and sugar consumption experiment. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) method was used for determination of the content of the rat hippocampus 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)
norepinephrine(NE) and dobaamine(DA). Result: Compared with normal group
the scores of horizontal activity and vertical activity
sugar consumption were decreased significantly in the model group. Compared with model group
fluoxetine group and Nutmeg Wuwei pills groups got significantly higher scores of horizontal activity
vertical activity and sugar consumption. Nutmeg Wuwei pills could increase hippocampus 5-HT
NE and DA content
especially which was significant in the medium and high dose groups (P <0.05
P <0.01). Conclusion: Nutmeg Wuwei pills can improve abnormal behavior of depressive model rats and improve the neurotransmitter NE
5-HT
DA. The anti-depressive mechanism is mainly due to increasing the cerebral monoamine neurotransmitters concentration in the brains.
