Metformin modulates microbiota-derived inosine and ameliorates methamphetamine-induced anxiety and depression-like withdrawal symptoms in mice

Jiqing Yang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that anxiety and depression-like behaviors induced by METH withdrawal can be transmitted via gut microbiota in a mouse model. The therapeutic effects of metformin on psychiatric manifestations are associated with microbiota-derived metabolites. This highlights the role of gut microbiota in substance use disorders and withdrawal symptom pathophysiology.

Methamphetamine induces intestinal injury by altering gut microbiota and promoting inflammation in mice

Li-Bin Wang et al.

Summary: METH abuse leads to intestinal toxicity and alters the gut microbiota. This study found that METH treatment weakened the intestinal barrier, increased LPS levels, and induced inflammation. Furthermore, METH treatment reduced probiotic diversity and increased pathogenic gut microbiota. Activation of the TLR4 pathway confirmed the presence of intestinal inflammation. Pretreatment with antibiotics or Tlr4 silencing alleviated METH-induced dysbiosis, LPS over-production, inflammation, and barrier disruption.

Role of gut-brain axis, gut microbial composition, and probiotic intervention in Alzheimer's disease

Periyanaina Kesika et al.

Summary: Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) through dysbiosis, leading to inflammatory signaling pathway disturbances that promote neuroinflammation and neuronal death. Understanding the relationship between gut microbiota and CNS can help identify probiotic-based supplementation as a potential therapeutic option for AD.

Melatonin ameliorates methamphetamine-induced cognitive impairments by inhibiting neuroinflammation via suppression of the TLR4/MyD88/ NF kappa B signaling pathway in the mouse hippocampus

Thit Lwin et al.

Summary: The study shows that melatonin can improve spatial and recognition memory impairments caused by METH, potentially through modulation of neuroinflammatory mediators. METH-induced neuroinflammation in the hippocampus of mice includes reactive astrocytes and activated microglia.

BRD4 inhibition and FXR activation, individually beneficial in cholestasis, are antagonistic in combination

Hyunkyung Jung et al.

Summary: OCA activation of FXR reduces hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in PBC patients, while inhibition of BRD4 disrupts bile acid homeostasis. The beneficial effects of OCA are enhanced by inhibiting BRD4, but co-treatment with OCA and the BRD4 inhibitor JQ1 may be antagonistic in liver disease patients with inflammation and fibrosis complications.

Escalating dose-multiple binge methamphetamine treatment elicits neurotoxicity, altering gut microbiota and fecal metabolites in mice

Li-Jian Chen et al.

Summary: The study found that METH exposure induced autophagy in the CNS, elevated intestinal autophagy flora levels, leading to accumulation of fecal metabolites in the autophagy pathway, and causing enteritis. Moreover, METH promoted intestinal inflammation by increasing the relative abundance of pathogenic bacteria in the intestinal tract, and reduced intestinal TJ protein expression.

Transplantation of fecal microbiota from patients with inflammatory bowel disease and depression alters immune response and behavior in recipient mice

Hyo-Min Jang et al.

Summary: The occurrence of depression in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is closely related to systemic inflammation and anxiety/depression-like behaviors. Changes in gut microbiota composition, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), and tight junction protein expression may play a key role in this process.
