Title

Ingestion of Bifidobacterium longum subspecies infantis strain CCFM687 regulated emotional behavior and the central BDNF pathway in chronic stress-induced depressive mice through reshaping the gut microbiota

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and probable mechanisms of CCFM687 treatment on the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model of depression. C57BL/6J mice were divided into the following 4 groups: (1) control group, (2) CUMS group, (3) CUMS + fluoxetine group (stressor plus fluoxetine treatment at the dose of 10 mg/kg), and (4) CUMS + CCFM687 groups (stressor plus CCFM687 treatment at the dose of 10^9 CFU). The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 5 weeks, and drugs were administered via intragastric during the model building period. Short-chain fatty acids were extracted by diethyl ether from fresh cecal contents and qualified by GC-MS system (n = 6 per group).
