Alterations in gut microbiota are related to metabolite profiles in spinal cord injury

Jian-Ning Kang et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that gut microbiota metabolites can enter the central nervous system and cause neuroinflammation, thus constituting secondary injury after spinal cord injury. This study established mouse models of spinal cord injury and used sequencing and metabolomics to reveal changes in gut microbiota and metabolites. Results showed severe disturbances in gut microbiota after spinal cord injury, with increases in pro-inflammatory bacteria and decreases in anti-inflammatory bacteria. Specific amino acids were found to play a pivotal role in activating oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. The findings suggest that disturbances in gut microbiota might participate in secondary injury through the accumulation of metabolites. This study provides a new theoretical basis for improving secondary injury after spinal cord injury through fecal microbial transplantation.

The Crosstalk between Gut Microbiota and Nervous System: A Bidirectional Interaction between Microorganisms and Metabolome

Monica Montagnani et al.

Summary: Several studies have shown that the gut microbiota has an influence on behavior, and changes in the immune system associated with symptoms of depression or anxiety disorder may be reflected in corresponding changes in the gut microbiota. However, there is currently no accurate epidemiological evidence explaining the connection between central nervous system (CNS) pathology and intestinal dysbiosis.

Impact of High Salt-Intake on a Natural Gut Ecosystem in Wildling Mice

Alessio Cardilli et al.

Summary: This article investigates the effect of a high-salt diet on the gut microbiota of laboratory and wild mice. The results show that the high-salt diet leads to a decrease in microbial diversity and significant changes in microbial composition in laboratory mice, while the gut microbiota of wild mice remains relatively unaffected. This finding has important implications for future translational microbiome research.

Systematic review of the changes in the microbiome following spinal cord injury: animal and human evidence

Ezra Valido et al.

Summary: This study investigated the changes in the microbiome among human and animal populations with spinal cord injury (SCI). The results showed significant differences in gut microbiome composition between SCI and able-bodied populations, including a decrease in beneficial butyrate-producing bacteria and an increase in inflammation-associated bacteria. The urinary tract microbiome of individuals with SCI was also found to be polymicrobial. Probiotics were shown to induce a temporary shift in the urinary tract microbiome. The study highlighted the importance of understanding the microbiome changes in SCI populations for potential therapeutic interventions.

Gary J. Farkas et al.

Summary: Many individuals with SCI suffer from preventable chronic diseases due to excessive energy intake and poor eating habits. Existing dietary recommendations do not account for the unique needs of individuals with SCI. Due to limited research on SCI, there is a lack of evidence-based dietary guidelines specific to this population.

Macrophage-based delivery of interleukin-13 improves functional and histopathological outcomes following spinal cord injury

Jana Van Broeckhoven et al.

Summary: The study focused on the use of genetically modified macrophages that secrete IL-13 to promote an anti-inflammatory phenotype after spinal cord injury. Results showed that IL-13 M phi s transplantation led to functional recovery, reduced lesion size, and decreased demyelination, indicating potential neuroprotective effects.

Gut Microbiota-Brain Axis as a Potential Modulator of Psychological Stress after Spinal Cord Injury

Samir Musleh-Vega et al.

Summary: A growing body of evidence suggests that alterations in the gut microbiota-brain axis are associated with the progression and development of various pathological conditions and cognitive dysfunctions. Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are often associated with anxiety and depression-like symptoms, with an incidence rate between 11% and 30%. These psychological stress-related symptoms are linked to poor prognosis in SCIs and may be related to changes in specific brain areas.

Role of Gut Microbiome in Autism Spectrum Disorder and Its Therapeutic Regulation

Masuma Afrin Taniya et al.

Summary: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological disorder that affects brain development. The recent discovery of the microbiota-gut-brain axis reveals the connection between gut microbiota and neurological disorders such as autism. Factors like early colonization, mode of delivery, and antibiotic usage significantly impact the gut microbiome and the onset of autism. The fermentation of plant-based fiber produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) that can have either positive or negative effects on the gut and neurological development of autistic patients. Comprehensive studies on the gut microbiome and microbiota-gut-brain axis aid in understanding the mechanisms underlying neurological disorders and identifying potential treatments for autism.

Effect of fecal microbiota transplantation on neurological restoration in a spinal cord injury mouse model: involvement of brain-gut axis

Yingli Jing et al.

Summary: Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from healthy uninjured mice into SCI mice was found to improve locomotor and GI functions through promoting neuronal axonal regeneration, enhancing intestinal barrier integrity and modifying gut microbiome composition. Additionally, FMT increased levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in feces and downregulated inflammatory signaling pathways in the spinal cord and gut of SCI mice. These findings suggest that FMT may have a neuroprotective effect on SCI.

Palmitoleic acid ameliorates palmitic acid-induced proinflammation in J774A.1 macrophages via TLR4-dependent and TNF-α-independent signallings

Yi-Wen Tsai et al.

Summary: Adipose tissue resident macrophages play a crucial role in regulating the inflammatory response, with monounsaturated fatty acids showing anti-inflammatory effects. Research indicates that palmitoleic acid can induce a protective effect against inflammation by reducing TLR2 or TLR4 signaling in macrophages of non-obese rodents. The balance of effects between palmitic acid and palmitoleic acid on macrophage activation suggests potential therapeutic implications for palmitoleic acid in ameliorating non-obese-mediated inflammation.

Changes in gut microbiota in the acute phase after spinal cord injury correlate with severity of the lesion

Gabriele Bazzocchi et al.

Summary: Following spinal cord injury (SCI), patients exhibit dysbiotic gut microbiota characterized by an increase in potentially pathogenic bacteria and a depletion of beneficial bacteria, which is influenced by the level and completeness of the spinal lesion. This microbial imbalance could potentially contribute to increased gut permeability and inflammation, predisposing patients to severe comorbidities.
