Neuroinflammation, Gut-Brain Axis and Depression

Abstract: Psychiatric diseases are the manifestations that result from the individual's genetic structure, physiology, immunology and ways of coping with environmental stressors. The current psychiatric diagnostic systems do not include any systematic characterization in regard to neurobiological processes that reveal the clinical picture in individuals who got psychiatric diagnosis. It is obvious that further research in different areas is needed to understand the psychopathology. The problems in the functions of immun… Show more

“…EA can reduce corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) mRNA expression in the hypothalamus and the expression of CRH and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, thereby reducing cortisol expression in the adrenal glands and inhibiting the HPA axis. Monoamine neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline) play an important role in depression and normal mood development [ 48 ]. EA can restore synaptic plasticity by regulating the expression of monoamine neurotransmitters in the hippocampus and then alleviate depression symptoms.…”

“…Disturbed gut microbiota has a huge impact on the abundance and types of microbiota-derived molecules, including neurotransmitters, short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, and indole metabolic derivatives [ 45 48 ]. By competing with the biosynthesis of serotonin from tryptophan, intestinal microorganisms cause metabolic breakdown of tryptophan to indole derivatives via enzyme tryptophanase [ 46 , 47 ]. The production of indole derivative indoxyl sulfate is elevated in disturbed gut microbiota and is decreased by probiotics [ 12 ].…”

“…Accumulating evidence reveals a close linkage of brain injury and gastrointestinal dysfunction. The influence of the gastrointestinal tract on the brain of human has been noted since the 19th century, and the neuroinflammation hypothesis has been advocated since the 21 st century (Evrensel et al, 2019). The structure and function of the brain can be modulated by the gut; conversely, the brain regulates the gut microenvironment and microbiota composition (Maqsood and Stone, 2016;Zhao et al, 2018).…”
