Role of BDNF-TrkB signaling in the antidepressant-like actions of loganin, the main active compound of Corni Fructus.
Article in CNS neuroscience & therapeutics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimsCorni Fructus (CF) and some CF-contained prescriptions are commonly used in clinical treatment of depression. This investigation aims to evaluate the main active compound of CF in antidepressant properties and its key target.
methodsFirstly, this study established a behavioral despair model and used high-performance liquid chromatography method to evaluate the antidepressant-like effects of water extract, 20%, 50%, and 80% ethanol extracts of CF, and its main active compound. Then, this study created chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model to assess loganin's antidepressant-like properties, and its target was evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, Immunofluorescence, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB) inhibitor.
resultsResults showed that the different extracts of CF significantly shortened the immobility time in forced swimming and tail suspension tests. Moreover, loganin alleviated CUMS-induced depression-like behavior, promoted neurotrophy and neurogenesis, and inhibited neuroinflammation. Furthermore, K252a blocked the improvement of loganin on depression-like behavior, and eliminated the enhancement of neurotrophy and neurogenesis and the inhibition of neuroinflammation.
conclusionOverall, these results indicated that loganin could be used as a major active compound of CF for the antidepressant-like properties and exerted antidepressant-like actions by regulating brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-TrkB signaling, and TrkB could be used as key target for itsantidepressant-like actions.
