2. Behavioral effects of Bj-PRO-7a, a proline-rich oligopeptide from Bothrops jararaca venom
The heptapeptide Bj-PRO-7a, isolated and identified from Bothrops jararaca (Bj) venom, produces antihypertensive and other cardiovascular effects that are independent on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition, possibly relying on cholinergic muscarinic receptors subtype 1 (M1R). However, whether Bj-PRO-7a acts upon the central nervous system and modifies b

3. Mean platelet volume and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio decrease in patients with depression with antidepressant treatment
Abstract Objective Not only white blood cells but also platelets are being considered in inflammatory reactions from now on. Mean platelet volume (MPV) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) have been shown to change in inflammatory diseases like myocardial infarction, stroke and implicated in psychiatric disorders nowadays. Our first aim is to investiga

4. Potential antidepressant effect of amantadine: a review of preclinical studies and clinical trials
Objective: Amantadine blocks N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and has dopaminergic and noradrenergic action, a neurochemical profile that suggests its potential as an antidepressant drug. We conducted a systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies addressing the effects of amantadine in animal models of depression and in patients with depressi

5. Uliginosin B, a natural phloroglucinol derivative with antidepressant-like activity, increases Na+,K+-ATPase activity in mice cerebral cortex
ABSTRACT Uliginosin B, a phloroglucinol isolated from Hypericum polyanthemum Klotzsch ex Reichardt, Hypericaceae, has antidepressant-like effect in the forced swimming test in rodents and inhibits monoamines neuronal reuptake without binding to their neuronal carriers. Studies showed the involvement of Na+,K+-ATPase brain activity in depressive disorders, as

7. G-protein activation revealed by [35S]-GTPγS binding assay is involved on the antidepressant-like effect of Hyperi cum caprifoliatum and Hypericum polyanthemumcyclohexane extracts
AbstractPrevious studies by us demonstrated the antidepressant-like and antinociceptive effects of lipophilic extracts and dimeric acyl-phloroglucinols from species of the genus Hypericum native to Southern Brazil. Uliginosin B and HC1 (an enriched phloroglucinol fraction from Hypericum caprifoliatum) are able to inhibit monoamine synaptosomal uptake without

8. Antidepressant-like effect of Hoodia gordonii in a forced swimming test in mice: evidence for involvement of the monoaminergic system
Hoodia gordonii is a plant species used traditionally in southern Africa to suppress appetite. Recently, it has been associated with a significant increase in blood pressure and pulse rate in women, suggesting sympathomimetic activity. The present study investigated the possible antidepressant-like effects of acute and repeated (15 days) administration of H

9. Anxiolytic-like effect of the extract from Bowdichia virgilioides in mice
Current therapeutic for the treatment of anxiety is associated with a wild variety of side effects. The traditional use of plant extract to health care can indicate an important source of new pharmaceuticals. Bowdichia virgilioides Kunth, Fabaceae, is a plant commonly employed in the Brazilian folk medicine to treat inflammatory conditions. Nevertheless, des

10. Animal models as tools to study the pathophysiology of depression
The incidence of depressive illness is high worldwide, and the inadequacy of currently available drug treatments contributes to the significant health burden associated with depression. A basic understanding of the underlying disease processes in depression is lacking; therefore, recreating the disease in animal models is not possible. Popular current models
