Anxiety is one of the complications metabolic disorders (MDs). Obeticholic acid (OCA), bile acids (BAs) derivative, a promising agent for improving MDs in association with gut dysbiosis. Yet, its protective effect on MDs-driven anxiety remains unknown. Here, we assessed serum biochemical parameters and behavioral performance by open field Morris water maze tests HFHS diet-induced mice after OCA intervention nine 18 weeks. Moreover, antibiotics microbial depletion was conducted simultaneously. We found that treatment inhibited initiation progression diet-MDs via microbiota–BAs–brain axis: decreased neuroinflammatory microglia IL-1β expression hippocampus, reversed intestinal barrier dysfunction proinflammatory LPS to normal level, modified community, including known anxiety-related Rikenellaceae Alistipes, improved metabolites especially increased BAs feces circulation.

Together, these findings provide axis novel therapeutic target MDs-associated neuropsychiatric disorders.

This theoretical article revives a classical bridging construct, canalization, to describe new model of general factor psychopathology. To achieve this, we have distinguished between two types plasticity, an early one that call 'TEMP' for 'Temperature or Entropy Mediated Plasticity', and another, 'canalization', which is close Hebbian plasticity. These forms plasticity can be most easily by their relationship 'precision' inverse variance; TEMP relates increased variance decreased precision, whereas the opposite true canalization. also subsumes learning rate, (Ising) temperature entropy. Dictionary definitions 'plasticity' it as property being shaped molded; better match this. Importantly, propose 'pathological' phenotypes develop via mechanisms canalization defensive response adversity associated distress dysphoria.

Depression is a mood disorder with high prevalence rate globally, which associated abnormalities in 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) metabolism. Emerging evidence suggests that certain probiotics modulate 5-HT metabolism confer beneficial effects on depression. In this study, vitro enterochromaffin RIN14B cells were used for screening potential antidepressant probiotic Lactococcus lactis strains. The L. strain WHH2078 increased to levels the precursor 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and expression of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (Tph1), converts 5-HTP cells. oral administration (1 × 109 CFU mL-1) mice induced chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) 5 weeks significantly ameliorated depressive anxiety-like behaviors tail suspension test, forced swim sucrose preference open field test. Besides, reduced serum corticosterone level restored central 5-HT, 5-HTP, brain-derived neurotrophic factor CUMS-induced mice. Moreover, also reversed colon, accompanied by an upregulation colonic Tph1 gene expression. Using 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing feces, was shown improve gut microbial dysbiosis, through restoring alpha diversity abundances Firmicutes Bacteroidetes. summary, these results indicate can alleviate rodent response CUMS, improvement modulation microbiome composition.

Indole acetic acid (IAA), an intestinal bacteria-derived tryptophan metabolite, has been detected at abnormal concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid and urine of depressed individuals. The effects such altered IAA on mood regulation are not known. A mouse model unpredictable chronic mild stress (UCMS) was used to assess administration (50 mg/kg). Treatment with for 5 weeks attenuated depression anxiety-like behaviours, improved hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis dysfunction increased brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression. supplementation also enhanced serotonin pathway brain gut. UCMS caused imbalance microbial indole metabolites colon, whereas treatment reversed this. However, intake did affect indoles brain. Intestinal bacteria different sections gut were by treatment, colon showing more changes than other segments. microbiome had proportions Ruminococcaceae UCG013, Ruminiclostridium 6, Prevotella, Alloprevotella Bacteroides species, which can produce short-chain fatty acids derivatives. Cumulatively, our study highlights potential alleviate disorders offers a theoretical basis understanding antidepressant IAA.
