摘要

Depression is a long-term, related to stress neuropsychiatric disorder, leading to psychological health issues including worthlessness, anhedonia, sleep and appetite disturbances, dysregulated HPA axis, neuronal cell death, and alterations in the gut microbiota (GM). Dysregulated HPA axis increases level of glucocorticoids that induce proinflammatory response with activation of abnormal kynurenine pathway via metabolizing indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). Kynurenine pathway leads to excitotoxicity of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor responsible for neuronal cell death. Further, probiotics supplementation gained attention from researchers and clinicians to treat neuropsychiatric diseases. GM alteration remains a key reason for depression; however, there is limited information about the role of probiotics on depression involving glucocorticoid receptor and NMDA excitotoxicity through IDO. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model was prepared to check the role of Lactobacillus fermentum ATCC 9338 (LF) and 1-methyl-D-tryptophan (1-MT) in depression. Herein, mice were placed into experimental groups: control, CUMS stressed, CUMS vehicle, CUMS LF, CUMS 1-MT, and CUMS UT (untreated). Results showed that peroral administration of 1 × 108 CFU/day/mouse LF and intraperitoneal dose of 1-MT (15 mg/kg BW/day) alleviate depressive-like behavior and improve motor coordination and walking patterns. Mice supplemented with LF and 1-MT exhibited a decreased expression of GR and NMDAR2b in the cortex, hippocampus, and medulla. Acetylcholinesterase, SOD, and CAT activities were improved in CUMS mice with supplementation of LF and 1-MT. The GM abundance in LF mice was similar to that in control mice. Such study suggests the roles of LF and 1-MT in depression and oxidative stress, and helpful to understand their therapeutic potential through the HPA axis and IDO.
