β-carboline compounds display a therapeutic property for treating depression and anxiety behaviors. Imipramine and citalopram play an important role in the modulation of anxiety and depression behaviors. We investigated the effects of norharmane, imipramine, and citalopram on anxiety- and depression-like effects and their interactions. Elevated plus maze and forced swimming test were used for the assessment of anxiety- and depression-like behaviors in male mice. The results revealed that intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of norharmane (10 mg/kg) increased percentage of open arm time (%OAT) in the elevated plus maze test and decreased immobility time in the forced swimming test, proposing anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects. Injection of imipramine (5 mg/kg; i.p.) enhanced %OAT and decreased immobility time, suggesting anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects. Moreover, norharmane potentiated the anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like responses induced by imipramine by increasing %OAT and decreasing immobility time. The results revealed additive anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects between norharmane and imipramine in mice. Alone, the administration of citalopram (5 mg/kg; i.p.) enhanced %OAT and reduced immobility time, causing anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects. When citalopram and norharmane were coinjected, norharmane augmented the anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects induced by citalopram by increasing %OAT and reducing immobility time. These results indicated additive anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like effects between norharmane and antidepressant drugs such as imipramine and citalopram on the modulation of anxiety and depression processes in mice.
