Title

Microbiome and metabolome reveal the metabolic and microbial variations induced by depression and constipation

Overall design

The aim of this study was to reveal the possible correlations between depression and constipation from the perspectives of gut microbiome and plasma metabolome. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) and the constipated model were constructed. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 2 groups (n = 6 in each group): (1) control group, and (2) CUMS group. The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 4 weeks. Nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics was applied to reveal altered metabolites in the plasma.
