This new article publication from Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, discusses how gut microbiota-derived short-chain fatty acids ameliorate methamphetamine-induced depression- and anxiety-like behaviors in a Sigmar-1 receptor-dependent manner.
Methamphetamine (Meth) abuse can cause serious mental disorders, including anxiety and depression. The gut microbiota is a crucial contributor to maintaining host mental health. The authors of this article investigated if microbiota participate in Meth-induced mental disorders, and the potential mechanisms involved.
