Mechanism of Chaijin Jieyu Anshen Tablets in regulating abnormal ACC-vHPC glutaminergic neural circuit to alleviate synaptic remodeling of ventral hippocampal neurons in depressed rats
This study aims to reveal the molecular mechanism of Chaijin Jieyu Anshen Tablets(CJJYAS) in regulating the abnormal anterior cingulate cortex(ACC)-ventral hippocampus(vHPC) glutaminergic neural circuit to alleviate synaptic remodeling of ventral hippocampal neurons in depressed rats. Firstly, the study used chemogenetics to localize glutaminergic adeno-associated virus(AAV) into the ACC brain region of rats. The model of depressed rats was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS) combined with independent feeding. The rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, AAV empty group, AAV group, AAV+ glucocorticoid receptors(GR) blocker group, AAV+chemokine receptor 1(CX3CR1) blocker group, and AAV+CJJYAS group. Depressive-like behaviors of rats were evaluated by open-field, forced-swimming, and Morris water maze tests, combined with an animal behavior analysis system. The morphological and structural changes of ACC and vHPC neurons in rats were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staini
