摘要: Introduction: Passiflora incarnata (PI) is one of the commonest herbal anti-anxiety and sedative agents. The aim present study was to investigate antidepressant effect hydroalcoholic extract PI in forced swim test (FST) tail suspension (TST) male mice. Methods: In this experimental study, 48 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups 8: Negative positive control received normal saline (10 ml/kg), fluoxetine (20 mg/kg) imipramine (30 mg/kg), respectively treatment extracts (200, 400 800 mg/kg). Immobility, swimming climbing behaviors recorded during 6-min. Results: All doses compared group significantly reduced duration immobility time both two tests (p<0.001). Also, these increased (p<0.001) without significant change time. Conclusion: has considerable antidepressant-like animal models depression. However, further studies are needed determine its exact mechanism action.
