ED carries an estimated prevalence of 1.4%, and is associated with significant social dysfunction, as patie...
To determine the gut microbiota and urine metabolomics signature and identify the regional characteristics in Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), we conducted a cohort study of 88 well-characterized participants from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in Southern China. Gut microbiota and urine metabo...
Tic disorder (TD) is a developmental neuropsychiatric disorder that primarily occurs during childhood and impacts the quality of life and psychosocial function of patients. The pathogenesis of TD involves the dysregulation of the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical (CSTC) circuit and metabolic abnor...
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) ranks among the most prevalent psychiatric disorders globally. The impact of the gut microbiota and associated metabolites on OCD remains unclear. Here, we report a remarkable reduction of Akkermansia muciniphila (A. muciniphila) abundance in both patients and ...
In this study, a HFD-induced lipid metabolism disorder model was established in C57BL/6 mice in vivo, and a palmitic acid (PA)-induced hepatocyte lipid accumulation model was constructed in HepG2 cells in vitro. Using component identification, network pharmacology, transcriptome sequencing, molec...
