Involvement of Anti-Inflammatory and Stress Oxidative Markers in the Antidepressant-like Activity of Aloysia citriodora and Verbascoside on Mice with Bacterial Lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) Induced Depression

Figure 6

Behavioral effects of HEAc and verbascoside in mice in the posttreatment experiment. Note: posttreatment experiment: treatments administered (gavage) 5 h after exposure to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 600 μg/kg, i.p). N (naive); Veh (vehicle, water); HEAc (Aloysia citriodora hydroalcoholic extract 3, 30, or 300 mg/kg); VBS (verbascoside, 30 mg/kg); Flu (fluoxetine 30 mg/kg), PS (per se group, HEAc). A–H: values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 8). ANOVA (one way), post hoc Tukey. , , and compared to the naive group. ^#, ^##, and ^### compared to the Veh group.
