Clinically effective antidepressant drugs normalize the disturbed activity of the HPA axis by inhibition of corticotrophin releasing factor gene promoter activity.

The behavioral and biochemical effects of total furocoumarins from seeds of Psoralea corylifolia (TFPC) were investigated in the forced swimming test (FST) in mice in comparison with amitriptyline and fluoxetine. TFPC was found to reduce the duration of immobility in the FST without accompanying
