RESUMO
The impact of intestinal flora on human and animal health and diseases has attracted much attention both at home and abroad in recent years. The intestinal flora constitutes the intestinal microecosystem and plays an important role in physiological activities such as nutrition, metabolism, growth and development, barrier protection, and immunity. In this article, the relationship between intestinal dysbiosis and psychiatric diseases has been reviewed from two aspects:metagenomic characterization of intestinal microflora diversity in neurological diseases and validation of the relationship between intestinal flora and psychiatric diseases by fecal bacteria transplantation in germ-free mice. In addition, the microbial-gut-brain axis theory has been proposed in recent years, which links the nerve-endocrine-immune system to form a two-way signaling pathway. Intestinal flora plays an important role in regulating the central nervous system by promoting neurotransmitter release, endocrine, and immunity. The system plays an important role. Changes in intestinal flora mainly affect the host's nervous system through vagus nerve pathways, endocrine pathways, immune pathways, etc, thereby triggering or aggravating depression, autism, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, etc. This article reviews the relationships between host-related neurological abnormalities, intestinal flora imbalance and mental diseases, and discusses the research methods, research progress, and mechanism of the correlation between intestinal flora imbalance and mental diseases to research progress on microbe-gut-brain axis.
