Despite mounting evidence of gut-brain involvement in psychiatric conditions, functional data remain limited, and analyses other microbial niches, such as the vaginal microbiota, are lacking relation to mental health. This aim this study was investigate if connections between gut microbiome health observed populations with a clinical diagnosis illness extend healthy women experiencing stress depressive symptoms. Additionally, examined pathways microbiota according levels psychological Furthermore, aimed explore potential correlations parameters young without diagnoses. In cross-sectional study, 160 Danish (aged 18-40 years) filled out questionnaires validated scales measuring symptoms depression frequency dietary intake.

Modulating the gut microbiome and its influence on human health is subject of intense research. The microbiota could be associated not only with gastroenterological diseases but also psychiatric disorders. importance factors such as stress, mode delivery, role probiotics, circadian clock system, diet, occupational environmental exposure in relationship between brain function through bidirectional communication, described "the microbiome-gut-brain axis", especially underlined. In this review, we discuss link intestinal host response involving different pathways nervous system (e.g., neurotransmitters, endocrine immunological mechanisms, or bacterial metabolites). We review alterations their results development disorders, including major depressive disorder (MDD), schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar (BD), autism spectrum (ASD), attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD).

The gut microbiome is thought to play a role in depressive disorders, which makes it an attractive target for interventions. Both the and symptom levels vary substantially across ethnic groups. Thus, any intervention depression targeting requires understanding of microbiome-depression associations ethnicities. Analysing data from HELIUS cohort, we characterize microbiota its with symptoms 6 groups (Dutch, South-Asian Surinamese, African Ghanaian, Turkish, Moroccan; N = 3211), living same urban area. Diversity microbiota, both within (α-diversity) between individuals (β-diversity), predicts levels, taking into account demographic, behavioural, medical differences. These do not differ Further, β-diversity explains 29%-18% differences symptoms. Bacterial genera associated belong mulitple families, prominently including families Christensenellaceae, Lachnospiraceae, Ruminococcaceae. In summary, results show that are linked this association generalizes Moreover, suggest may partly explain parallel disparities depression.
