Embodiment 1

[0028] Embodiment 1: R-ketamine antidepressant curative effect experiment

[0029] 1.1 Materials and methods

[0030] 1.1.1 Experimental animals

[0031] Male adult C57BL / 6 mice, 8 weeks old (body weight 20-25 g, Japan SLC, Hamamatsu, Japan) and adult CD1(ICR) mice, 13-15 weeks old (body weight more than 40 g, Japan SLC, Japan Hamamatsu pine, Japan). Animals were housed at constant temperature with a 12-h light / dark cycle (lights on at 07:00-19:00 hrs), with free access to food and water.

[0032] 1.1.2 Experimental materials

[0033] PCPA chloropropionate hydrochloride (300 mg / kg, 5-HT synthesis inhibitor) was purchased from Sigma-aldrich (St. Louis, USA).

[0034] 1.1.3 Chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) depression model

[0035] C57BL / 6 mice were exposed to different CD1-challenged cages for 10 min per day for a total of 10 days. At the end of each day's stressful stimulation, the CD1 mice and the invading C57BL / 6 mice were housed on opposite sides of the cage, separ...

Psychotherapy has certain requirements for patients' comprehension and comprehension ability, and the treatment period is long and the cost is high, which limits its use. Physiotherapy, such as electroconvulsive therapy, requires general anesthesia and will seriously a...
