Catalpol ameliorates depressive-like behaviors in CUMS mice via oxidative stress-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome and neuroinflammation

The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether catalpol exhibited neuro-protective effects in chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)mice through oxidative stress-mediated nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain,leucine-rich repeat,and pyrin-domain-containing 3(NLRP3)inflammasome and neuroinflammation.
