Popis: | Background Cognitive impairment is identified as one of the diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder and can extensively affect the quality of life of patients. Based on these findings, this study aimed to investigate the possible effects of Riparin IV (Rip IV) on cognitive impairment induced by chronic administration of corticosterone in mice. Methods Female Swiss mice were divided into four groups: control (Control), corticosterone (Cort), Riparin IV (Cort + Rip IV), and Fluvoxamine (Cort + Flu). Three groups were administered corticosterone (20 mg/kg) subcutaneously during the 22-day study, while the control group received only vehicle. After the 14th day, the groups were administered medications: Riparin IV (Rip IV), fluvoxamine (Flu), or distilled water, by gavage, 1 h after the subcutaneous injections. After treatment, mice underwent behavioral testing, and brain areas were removed for oxidative stress and cytokine content assays. Results The results revealed that Cort-treated mice developed a cognitive impairment and exhibited a neuroinflammatory profile with an oxidative load and Th1/Th2 cytokine imbalance. Rip IV treatment significantly ameliorated the cognitive deficit induced by Cort and displayed a neuroprotective effect. Conclusion The antidepressant-like ability of Rip IV treatment against chronic Cort-induced stress may be due to its potential to mitigate inflammatory damage and oxidative stress. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect observed indicates Rip IV as a possible drug for antidepressant treatment of non-responsive patients with severe and cognitive symptoms. |
