Abstract:
The microbiota-gut-brain axis hypothesis has attracted more and more attention in the research of the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Previous research has preliminarily investigated the relationship between the composition of gut microbiota and the brain imaging and clinical manifestation of patients with schizophrenia, but the specific action path is still unclear. This research summarized the latest research progress, and on this basis, proposed the mechanism hypothesis of gut microbiota affecting the brain structure and function of patients with schizophrenia. The related contents will provide a theoretical basis for further elucidation of the pathological mechanism of schizophrenia and for incorporating gut microbiota into the assessment and intervention of schizophrenia.
