The anxiolytic-like activity of water-soluble Moringa oleifera Lam. lectin is mediated via serotoninergic, noradrenergic, and dopaminergic neurotransmission

The anxiolytic-like activity of water-soluble Moringa oleifera Lam. lectin is mediated via serotoninergic, noradrenergic, and dopaminergic neurotransmission

Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that exhibit several biological activities, including modulatory effects on the central nervous system. In this study, we evaluated whether the water-soluble lectin from Moringa oleifera seeds (WSMoL) exhibits an anxiolytic-like effect when intraperitoneally...
