Title

Microbiome and tryptophan metabolomics analysis in adolescent depression: roles of the gut microbiota in the regulation of tryptophan-derived neurotransmitters and behaviors in human and mice

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate whether Roseburia Intestinalis. colonization could ameliorate depressive behaviors in the chronic restraint stress (CRS) model. C57/6 J mice were divided into the following 4 groups: (1) control group (non-stress with PBS treatment), (2) Roseburia Intestinalis. group (non-stress with Roseburia Intestinalis. treatment), (3) CRS group (stress with PBS treatment), and (4) CRS + Roseburia Intestinalis. group (stress with Roseburia Intestinalis. treatment). Mice in the CRS groups were stressed for 14 consecutive days. Then mice in the Roseburia Intestinalis. groups were orally administered with Roseburia Intestinalis. at a dose of 200 uL/per mouse for 14 consecutive days. The kynurenine pathway metabolites in the prefrontal cortex, colon, and serum were determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (n =4-6/group).
