Relationship between sleep disorders and gut dysbiosis: What affects what?

Recent evidence pointed to the relationship between sleep disorders and the gut microbiome, demonstrating how the microbiome plays a role in overall host health, owing to the role of sleep in psycho-social health maintenance, weight management, and hormone levels. Thus, sleep is subject to derangements due to gut microbiome dysbiosis, just like a myriad of […]

Microbial metabolites tune amygdala neuronal hyperexcitability and anxiety-linked behaviors

The correlation between gut microbiota composition and anxiety behavior This research investigates the correlation between gut microbiota composition and anxiety behavior, with a particular focus on the neural mechanisms involved. In male C57BL/6J germ-free (GF) mice, an increase in anxiety-related behaviors was observed, which correlated with elevated expression of the immediate early c-Fos gene in […]
