Abstract EN
Depression is a serious disorder that affects hundreds of millions of people around the world and causes poor quality of life, problem behaviors, and limitations in activities of daily living.
Therefore, the search for new therapeutic options is of high interest and growth.
Research on the relationship between depression and oxidative stress has shown important biochemical aspects in the development of this disease.
Flavonoids are a class of natural products that exhibit several pharmacological properties, including antidepressant-like activity, and affects various physiological and biochemical functions in the body.
Studies show the clinical potential of antioxidant flavonoids in treating depressive disorders and strongly suggest that these natural products are interesting prototype compounds in the study of new antidepressant drugs.
So, this review will summarize the chemical and pharmacological perspectives related to the discovery of flavonoids with antidepressant activity.
The mechanisms of action of these compounds are also discussed, including their actions on oxidative stress relating to depression.
