Abstract

Aims Danshensu [3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-lactic acid], a phenylpropanoid compound isolated from Prunella vulgaris var. lilacina, is a well-known antioxidant. Although its antioxidant activity and cardioprotective effect have been reported, the pharmacological properties of danshensu in the central nervous system remain unclear. We investigated whether danshensu exerts anxiolytic-like activity in mice.
