ZBD-2-mediated regulation of the HPA axis hormone levels in the PPD models. a-d The CRH (a), ACTH (b), and CORT (c) levels were significantly increased and the 5-HT (d) level was obviously decreased in the sera of PPD models. ZBD-2 reversed the CRH, ACTH, CORT, and 5-HT to basal levels, which were blocked by PK11195 treatment. The effects of ZBD-2 were comparable to the effects of fluoxetine. n = 6 mice in each group. **p < 0.01 compared with the control; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 compared with the PPD model; $$p < 0.01 compared with the ZBD-2 group. PK: PK11195
