Chronic stress exerts profound effects on mental health, contributing to disorders such as depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairment. This study examines the potential of psilocybin to alleviate behavioral despair and cognitive deficits in a rodent model of chronic stress, focusing on the interplay between the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis and the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). Twenty-two male Wistar rats were divided into control and stress groups.

Introduction: This study aimed to explore the impact and mechanism of Scutellariae radix (SR), dried root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi of Labiatae, on prenatal stress (PS) induced anxiety-like and depression-like behavior in the offspring in a mouse prenatal stress model.

Methods: The open field test (OFT), tail suspension test (TST), and forced swimming test (FST) were utilized to assess the behavior of the offspring. Histological changes were evaluated using HE staining and Nissl staining.

In our previous study, low-intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation (LIPUS), a novel noninvasive neuromodulation tool, effectively alleviated depression-like behaviors in a rat model of depression. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The present study aimed to elucidate the relevant mechanisms through transcriptomic research.
