摘要
This study aimed to evaluate the antidepressant-like and antioxidant potential of the aqueous leaf extract of Morus nigra L. in rats subjected to unpredictable chronic mild stress (UCMS). Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups, control and stressed, and treated with saline or aqueous extract of M. nigra. The dose administered was 10 mg/kg daily by gavage for 5 weeks concurrently with UCMS. M. nigra extract which showed syringic acid, quercetin, and rutin, as major phenolic compounds decreased the immobility time without changes in locomotor activity of stressed rats, in the forced swimming and open field tests, respectively. In addition, the extract diminished carbonylated proteins, lipid peroxidation, and nitrite levels in the brains of rats subjected to UCMS. These data reinforced antidepressant-like properties with the involvement of oxidative stress modulation by M. nigra extract pointing it as a possible new adjuvant treatment for depression.
