ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To determine whether or not pomegranate extract can affect depression, anxiety, and food intake in ovariectomized rats.METHODS:
Seventy-nine female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into six groups A, no operation and no drug intake; B, sham operation and distilled water; C, ovariectomy and distilled water; D, ovariectomy and 10% dilute pomegranate extract; E, ovariectomy and 20% dilute pomegranate extract; and F, ovariectomy and 40% dilute pomegranate extract. Beginning 2 days after surgery, drugs were administrated for 4 weeks. After that, the rats were subjected to the elevated plus maze (EPM) test and forced swim test (FST).RESULTS:
The 10% pomegranate extract had a lower % closed arm entry frequency in the EPM test. A pomegranate dose-dependent decrease in the duration of immobility duration in FST was shown. Pomegranate did not reverse ovariectomy-related hyperphagia and weight gain.CONCLUSION:
Pomegranate extract improved depression and anxiety in a postmenopausal model with ovariectomized rats.
