Finally, the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), TLR4, MYD88, p-IκB-α, and p-p65 proteins were determined by immunoblotting assay (Western Blot, WB) in mice with PFC.<h4>Results</h4>Puerarin was effective in alleviating CRS-induced depression-like behaviors measured in SPT, TST, FST and NSFT in mice. The gene discussed is TLR4; the disease is depressive symptom measurement.
