AbstractAntidepressant activity of crocin, saffron main component, has been established before. Based on previous study, it is suggested that elevation in the levels of BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), CREB (cAMP response element binding) and VGF neuropeptide could be considered as one probable molecular mechanisms involved in antidepressant activity of long term crocin administration in the rat hippocampus. In this study we further investigated whether the antidepressant activity of crocin in long term administration was associated with alteration in these factors in the rat cerebellum.en
