Title

Multi-probiotics ameliorate major depressive disorder and accompanying gastrointestinal syndromes via serotonergic system regulation

Overall design

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the psychotropic potential of probiotics in the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model of depression. C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following 3 groups: (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, and (3) CUMS + multi-probiotics group. The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 4 weeks, and multi-probiotics were administered via intragastric once per day during the model building period. For the multi-probiotics, Bifidobacterium breve CCFM1025, Bifidobacterium longum CCFM687, and Pediococcus acidilactici CCFM6432) (1:1:1) were given at a dosage of 10^9 CFU per day. The short-chain fatty acid concentrations in cecal contents were determined by GC-MS (n = 8/group).
