Inhalation administration of valerena-4,7(11)-diene from Nardostachys chinensis roots ameliorates restraint stress-induced changes in murine behavior and stress-related factors.
Dried Nardostachys chinensis roots contain sesquiterpenoids that are widely used as herbal tranquilizers. We previously identified the highly sedative sesquiterpenoid valerena-4,7(11)-diene (VLD) from this plant. In the present study, we investigated stress reducing effects of VLD and the associated mechanisms of action. Application of 15-min restraint stresses induced excitatory behaviors in m...
متن کاملChronic Administration of Baicalein Decreases Depression-Like Behavior Induced by Repeated Restraint Stress in Rats
Baicalein (BA), a plant-derived active flavonoid present in the root of Scutellaria baicalensis, has been widely used for the treatment of stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders including depression. Previous studies have demonstrated that repeated restraint stress disrupts the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, resulting in depression. The behavioral and neurochemica...
متن کاملMorin Hydrate ameliorates Chronic Restraint Stress-Induced Biochemical Disruption, Neuronal and Behavioral Dysfunctions in BALB/c Mice
Background: Morin hydrate (MH) is a bioflavonoid component of many fruits and vegetables. Our previous investigations demonstrated that MH confer neuroprotection in mouse models of acute restraint stress and sleep deprivation by attenuating hippocampal neuronal damage and enhancing memory. Based on these findings, our study investigated the role of MH in chronic stress-induced neuronal and bioc...
متن کاملInhalation of hydrogen gas ameliorates glyoxylate-induced calcium oxalate deposition and renal oxidative stress in mice.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the protective effect and underlying mechanism of hydrogen gas (H2) to glyoxylate induced renal calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal deposition in mice. In present work, rodent renal CaOx crystal deposition model was introduced by intra-abdominal injection of glyoxylate (100 mg/kg/d) for 5 days. Two days before administration of glyoxylate, inhalation of H2 for 30...
متن کاملRepeated otilonium bromide administration prevents neurotransmitter changes in colon of rats underwent to wrap restraint stress
Otilonium bromide (OB) is a spasmolytic drug successfully used for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Its efficacy has been attributed to the block of L- and T-type Ca2+ channels and muscarinic and tachykinin receptors in the smooth muscle. Furthermore, in healthy rats, repeated OB administration modified neurotransmitter expression and function suggesting other mechanisms of acti...
