Imbalance in Gut Microbiome Can Lead to Depressive-Like Behaviors
Imbalance in Gut Microbiome Can Lead to Depressive-Like Behaviors December 14, 2020 Share Researchers from the Institut Pasteur, Inserm, and the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) recently conducted a study “Effect of gut microbiota on depressive-like behaviors in mice is mediated by the endocannabinoid system” showing that an imbalance in the gut bacterial community can cause a reduction in some metabolites, resulting in depressive-like behaviors. These findings, which show that a healthy gut microbiota contributes to normal brain function, were published in Nature Co...
