Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Subject were19 patients with Major depressive disorder and 50 healthy controls. Fecal sample were analyzed using two-step polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and next-generation 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Intestinal permeability was evaluated using the lactulose / mannitol test.The abundance of several bacteria were found significant differences, although, there was no difference in intestinal permeability measured by Lactulose-Mannitol test between patients and controls.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果によって、腸内細菌叢構成が健常者と大うつ病患者とでは異なることが分かった。このことにより、腸内細菌構成のアプローチが治療や予防に効果がある可能性を示すことが出来た。出生早期より腸内細菌構成が確定してくることから、出生前の腸内細菌を考慮した環境への配慮、食習慣との関係についても望ましい対応について追及していく必要がある。
