3-O-Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid ameliorates chronic unpredictable mild stress induced HPA axis dysregulation in relation with glutamate/GABA aberration in depressive rats.

Overt expression of brain glucocorticoid receptor (GR) leads to elevation of glutamate release causes cerebral excitotoxicity which in turn produce neuropsychological disorders. The aim of our work is to study the consequence of 3-O-Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA) on chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) induced HPA axis dysregulation in relative to glutamate and GABA irregularity in depressive rats. AKBA (5, 10 &15mg/kg) was administered for 28 days parallel with CUMS induction in rats.
