Abstract in brief

  • The discovery of the human microbiome has led to a new understanding of health, especially regarding how gut microbes might influence brain functions and diseases like autism, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain.
  • There is growing evidence that the gut and brain communicate in both directions through complex neuroendocrine signals, and changes in one can affect the other, especially under stress or experimental modifications to the microbiome.
  • Current research, including large-scale studies and brain imaging, aims to confirm whether altering the gut microbiome can impact emotional behavior and brain responses, potentially opening new approaches to treat brain-related conditions.]
