Objective To observe the expression of nuclear transcription factor-cyclic response element-binding protain(CREB)mRNA and the interference effect of Yinaojieyu Formula on the rat model of post-stroke depression.Method Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used in the rat model of post-stroke depression.The expression of CREBmRNA in prefrontal cortex and hippocampus
and the interference of Yinaojieyu Formula were observed.Result The expression of CREBmRNA in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex in the rat model of post-stroke depression in the treatment group decreased obviously compared to that of the normal group.Yinaojieyu Formula improved obviously the expression of CREBmRNA.Conclusion The expression of CREB mRNA in the brain of rat model of post-stroke depression decreased
while Yinaojieyu Formula can increases this expression.The result showed that the expression of CREB decreased in post-stroke depression and the anti-depression effect of Yinaojieyu Formula may be related to its function of improving CREBmRNA expression.
