Abstract
⺠Our results reinforce the notion that folic acid has antidepressant-like effect. ⺠K+ channels inhibitors plus folic acid produce an antidepressant effect in the FST. ⺠K+ channel opener reverses the antidepressant-like effect of folic acid in the FST. ⺠The effect of folic acid in the FST may involve inhibition of K+ channels.
