Researchers conducted a study to determine if Uncaria rhynchophylla could be effective in treating depression. They induced depression in rats and then administered the herb to some while providing a placebo to others. The rats treated with the herb showed a decrease in depression-like symptoms and an increase in the neurotransmitter serotonin. The study suggests that the herb may be a useful treatment option for depression. However, further research is needed to determine its efficacy in humans.
