Title | Gut microbiota-derived inflammation-related serum metabolites as potential biomarkers for major depressive disorder |
Overall design | In this study, the combined application of serum metabolomics and fecal microbial communities was used to identify gut microbiota-derived inflammation-related serum metabolites as potential biomarkers for major depressive disorder (MDD). Both serum samples and fecal samples were collected from MDD patients (MDD group, n =60) and healthy controls (control group, n =60). The liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to detect the metabolites in serum samples, and the 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to analyze the gut microbiota compositions in fecal samples. |
