Galphimia glauca and Natural Galphimines Block Schizophrenia-Like Symptoms Induced with Apomorphine and MK-801 in Mice

Figure 2

Effect of the administration of the methanolic extract of Galphimia glauca (GgMeOH, 25 mg/kg), of the Galphimine Rich Fraction (GRF), and of the different galphimines (G-A, G-B, and G-E) on mice with schizophrenic-like symptoms induced by MK-801 (0.5 mg/kg) in the Forced Swimming Test (FST). NMDA (1 mg/kg), OLZ = Olanzapine (1 mg/kg), and Vehicle (VEH) = negative control group. ANOVA, Dunnett post-hoc test, indicates significant difference compared to the MK-801 group at a significance threshold of p<0.05 (n = 10, results are means ± standard error [SEM]; DF = 9, F (54.14) 2.18, p = 0.0001).
