Dihydromyricetin Alleviates Reserpine-Induced Depression by Modulating the Microbiota–Gut–Brain Axis
Abstract Dihydromyricetin (DMY) is a natural flavonoid with neuroprotective and antidepressant potential, but its role in the microbiota–gut–brain axis remains unclear. Using a reserpine-induced depression rat model, we integrated behavioral, inflammatory, histological, microbiot...
