Title

Methamphetamine disturbs gut homeostasis and reshapes serum metabolome, inducing neurotoxicity and abnormal behaviors in mice

Overall design

The aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of methamphetamine on gut homeostasis and neurotoxicity, and profile the potential metabolic pathways involved. C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following 2 groups: (1) control group, and (2) methamphetamine group. Mice were continuously administered with intraperitoneal saline or methamphetamine (2 mg/kg, 24-h intervals) injections for 5days (day 3-7, the development phase). After the transfer phase (day 8-9, free-injection interval), mice were administered with the same dose of saline or methamphetamine used in the development phase on day 10 (the expression phase). Higher depression levels were observed in mice after methamphetamine treatment. LC/MS analysis was conducted to profile serum metabolites (n = 6/per group).
