1 In this study, we investigated effect of Bex on depression-like behaviour in mice induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or corticosterone (CORT). Bexarotene cortistatin Mus musculus
2 Our results showed that treatment with Bex for 15 days significantly improved LPS-induced depression-like behaviour in social interaction test and CORT-induced depression-like behaviour in forced swimming test and tail suspension test in mice. Bexarotene cortistatin Mus musculus
3 Furthermore, Bex treatment also rescued the decrease in the expression of BDNF, and inhibition of CREB/BDNF/ERK pathway, and improved the expression of synaptic related protein in CORT-induced mice. Bexarotene cortistatin Mus musculus
