[HTML][HTML] Toward effective probiotics for autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders
Cell, 2013•cell.com
Hsaio and colleagues link gut microbes to autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in a mouse
model. They show that ASD symptoms are triggered by compositional and structural shifts of
microbes and associated metabolites, but symptoms are relieved by a Bacteroides fragilis
probiotic. Thus probiotics may provide therapeutic strategies for neurodevelopmental
disorders.
