Adult neurogenesis is the process of differentiation neural stem cells (NSCs) into neurons and glial in certain areas adult brain. Defects can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, mental disorders, other maladies. This directionally regulated by transcription factors, Wnt Notch pathway, extracellular matrix, various growth factors. External factors like stress, physical exercise, diet, medications, etc., affect gut microbiota. The microbiota may NSCs through vagal, immune chemical pathways, pathways. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been proven proliferation regulate abundance metabolites produced intestinal microorganisms. However, underlying mechanisms which these are not fully understood. In this review, we describe recent evidence on role neurogenesis. Moreover, hypothesize characteristics microbiota-gut-brain axis based bacterial phyla, including microbiota’s metabolites, neuronal pathways while providing an outlook TCM’s potential effects regulating
