The role of the probiotic Akkermansia muciniphila in brain functions: insights underpinning therapeutic potential

Ruiling Xu et al.

Summary: This review discusses the role of Akkermansia muciniphila in the gut-brain axis and its therapeutic potential in various neuropsychiatric disorders. It highlights the need for further clinical studies, but suggests that Akkermansia muciniphila may play an important role in healthy brain functions.

Comparative genomics and proteomics of Eubacterium maltosivorans: functional identification of trimethylamine methyltransferases and bacterial microcompartments in a human intestinal bacterium with a versatile lifestyle

Yuan Feng et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that Eubacterium maltosivorans is highly versatile in converting low-energy fermentation end-products in the human gut into butyrate and propionate while preventing the formation of trimethylamine by converting betaine and other quaternary amines in bacterial microcompartments. The strain produces different proteins under different growth conditions, indicating its adaptability and diversity.

Bacterial battle against acidity

Julia Schwarz et al.

Summary: This review discusses how acid-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia, Salmonella, Helicobacter, and Brucella, adapt to acidic environments and the defense mechanisms they employ, including proton consumption, ammonia production, cellular remodeling, and chemotaxis. It also explores how these bacteria sense environmental acidity and provides a detailed examination of the powerful proton-consuming decarboxylase systems.

GABA regulates IL-1b production in macrophages

Jian Fu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that GABA plays a role in regulating macrophage maturation and inflammation. It enhances certain signaling pathways and reduces the formation of inflammatory complexes, leading to a decrease in pro-inflammatory responses. GABA also shows potential in alleviating sepsis and obesity in mice.

GABA signaling enforces intestinal germinal center B cell differentiation

Yuexia Liao et al.

Summary: Recent findings suggest potential connections between neurotransmitters, intestinal mucosal immune responses, and the development of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). This study demonstrates that deficiency of the gamma-amino butyric acid transporter-2 (GAT-2) enhances the differentiation of germinal center (GC) B cells in the intestines and worsens the symptoms of IgAN in a mouse model. Additionally, IgAN patients have lower GAT-2 expression and higher activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in blood B cells, both of which are correlated with kidney function in IgAN patients.

A next-generation probiotic: Akkermansia muciniphila ameliorates chronic stress-induced depressive-like behavior in mice by regulating gut microbiota and metabolites

Yang Ding et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that Akkermansia muciniphila (AKK) significantly ameliorated depressive-like behavior induced by chronic stress, restored abnormal molecular levels related to depression, and altered chronic stress-induced gut microbial abnormalities. Additionally, untargeted metabolomics analysis identified potential biomarkers associated with the mechanisms underlying depression and the therapeutic effects of AKK.

High-coverage metabolomics uncovers microbiota-driven biochemical landscape of interorgan transport and gut-brain communication in mice

Yunjia Lai et al.

Summary: Microbiota plays a significant role in regulating the metabolites in feces, blood serum, and brain tissues, impacting various pathways including aromatic amino acids and neurotransmitters. The study highlights microbiota-derived metabolites potentially involved in interorgan transport and the gut-brain axis, with specific gender characteristics discussed.

Differences in the Concentration of the Fecal Neurotransmitters GABA and Glutamate Are Associated with Microbial Composition among Healthy Human Subjects

Hend Altaib et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the relationship between fecal GABA concentration and microbial composition in over 70 human participants, finding that high-GABA samples had lower microbial diversity. Specifically, the family Bifidobacteriaceae exhibited high abundance in the high-GABA group, suggesting a potential link between Bifidobacterium abundance and high fecal GABA content in healthy individuals. These findings may contribute to the development of probiotics to enhance microbial GABA production, supporting overall physical and psychiatric health of the host.
