dc.description.abstractDepression is a debilitating mental disorder with high prevalence around the world. While current antidepressants have shown efficacy, they are limited by side effects, highlighting the need for novel therapies. Centella asiatica is a traditional medicinal herb recognised for its various neuropsychiatric benefits. The pentacyclic triterpenoids; asiatic acid and madecassic acid, and their related saponins; asiaticoside and madecasosside are the major constituents of c. Asiatica. Few pharmacological reports on the antidepressant activity of c. Asiatica’s triterpenoids biomarker are available, whereby the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This work aims to investigate the potential antidepressant effects of the triterpenoids and their correlation with the serotoninergic system, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (hpa) axis, immune response and brain endogenous metabolites. The antidepressant effect of c. Asiatica’s biomarkers on the serotoninergic system was evaluated via in silico approach.
