Bifidobacterium breve BB05 alleviates depressive symptoms in mice via the AKT/mTOR pathway by Yanni Pan, Qingling Huang, Yuan Liang, Yuwuqi Xie, Fang Tan, Xingyao Long

“…IntroductionThis study investigates the potential of Bifidobacterium breve BB05 (BB05) in mitigating depressive symptoms in a mouse model of Chronic Unpredictable Mild Stress (CUMS), with fluoxetine as a positive control.Methods and ResultsHigh-dose BB05 (1.0 × 109 CFU/kg, BB05H) significantly reduced anxiety- and depression-like behaviors in CUMS mice, as measured by the open field test, tail suspension test, and forced swim test. BB05 treatment also reduced pathological ileal damage, alleviated inflammation, and lowered serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α. …”
