Antidepressant-like effect of active fraction of Polyrhachisvicina Roger in a rat depression model

AFPR normalized the metabolism rates of noradrenaline, serotonin and dopamine, and the activity of MAO, which were altered by chronic reserpine exposure. The findings suggest that modulation of the monoaminergic neurotransmitter system likely underlies the antidepressant-like effect of AFPR.
