Co-development of gut microbial metabolism and visual neural circuitry over human infancy
2024-07-24
Abstract excerpt
Infancy is a time of elevated neuroplasticity supporting rapid brain and sensory development. The gut microbiome, also undergoing extensive developmental changes in early life, may influence brain development through metabolism of neuroactive compounds. Here, we leverage longitudinal data from 194 infants across the first 18 months of life to show that microbial genes encoding enzymes that metabolize molecules pla...
