Title

Altered fecal metabolites and colonic glycerophospholipids were associated with abnormal composition of gut microbiota in a depression model of mice

Overall design

In this study, we established a chronic social defeated stress (CSDS) mice model of depression and applied multi-omics techniques (16S rRNA gene sequencing, non-target metabolomics, and lipidomics) to investigate the associations between the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal tract. C57BL/6J mice were divided into the following 2 groups: (1) control group, and (2) CSDS group (social defeated stress for 10 days). We applied 16S rRNA gene sequencing to assess the gut microbial composition and gas and liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy to identify fecal metabolites and colonic lipids, respectively (n = 10/8, control/CSDS for metabolomic and lipid profiling).
