摘要
Depression is a mood disorder with a high prevalence rate globally, which is associated with abnormalities in 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) metabolism. Emerging evidence suggests that certain probiotics that modulate 5-HT metabolism confer beneficial effects on depression. In this study, in vitro enterochromaffin RIN14B cells were used for screening potential antidepressant probiotic Lactococcus lactis strains. The L. lactis strain WHH2078 increased to high levels the 5-HT precursor 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and the expression of tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (Tph1), which converts tryptophan to 5-HTP in RIN14B cells. The oral administration of WHH2078 (1 × 109 CFU mL-1) in mice with induced chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) for 5 weeks significantly ameliorated depressive and anxiety-like behaviors in the tail suspension test, forced swim test, sucrose preference test, and open field test. Besides, WHH2078 significantly reduced the serum corticosterone level and restored the central levels of 5-HT, 5-HTP, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in CUMS-induced mice. Moreover, WHH2078 also reversed the 5-HTP levels in the serum and colon, accompanied by an upregulation in colonic Tph1 gene expression. Using 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing of feces, WHH2078 was shown to improve the CUMS-induced gut microbial dysbiosis, through restoring alpha diversity and the abundances of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. In summary, these results indicate that WHH2078 can alleviate rodent depressive and anxiety-like behaviors in response to CUMS, which is associated with the improvement of 5-HT metabolism and modulation of the gut microbiome composition. Therefore, supplementation of the L. lactis strain WHH2078 with antidepressant properties may serve as a promising therapeutic strategy for chronic stress-induced depression.
