Abstract Clinical and animal studies have shown that gut microbiome disturbances can affect neural function behaviors via the microbiota–gut–brain axis, may be implicated in pathogenesis of several brain diseases. However, exactly how modulates nervous system activity remains obscure. Here, using a single-cell nucleus sequencing approach, we sought to characterize cell type–specific transcriptomic changes prefrontal cortex hippocampus derived from germ-free (GF), specific pathogen free, colonized-GF mice. We found absence microbiota resulted cell-specific changes. Furthermore, microglia transcriptomes were preferentially influenced, which could effectively reversed by microbial colonization. Significantly, modulated mutual transformation microglial subpopulations two regions. Cross-species analysis showed transcriptome these mainly associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) major depressive disorder (MDD), further supported behavioral tests. Our findings demonstrate modulate subtypes, lead new insights into AD MDD.

COVID survivors frequently experience lingering neurological symptoms that resemble cancer-therapy-related cognitive impairment, a syndrome for which white matter microglial reactivity and consequent neural dysregulation is central. Here, we explored the neurobiological effects of respiratory SARS-CoV-2 infection found white-matter-selective in mice humans. Following mild mice, persistently impaired hippocampal neurogenesis, decreased oligodendrocytes, myelin loss were evident together with elevated CSF cytokines/chemokines including CCL11. Systemic CCL11 administration specifically caused neurogenesis. Concordantly, humans lasting post-COVID exhibit levels. Compared SARS-CoV-2, influenza similar patterns reactivity, oligodendrocyte loss, at early time points, but after influenza, only pathology persisted. These findings illustrate neuropathophysiology cancer therapy may contribute to impairment following even COVID.

Persistent neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms affect a substantial fraction of people after COVID-19 represent major component the post-acute syndrome, also known as long COVID. Here, we review what is understood about pathobiology impact on CNS discuss possible neurobiological underpinnings cognitive affecting survivors. We propose chief mechanisms that may contribute to this emerging health crisis.
