Research progress on the mechanism of gut microbiota affecting cognitive function
With the continued exploration of gut microbiota,it is known that gut microbiota is as-sociated with various diseases such as obesity,diabetes,anxiety,depression,and neurodegenerative diseases. Moreover,researchers have found that gut microbiota can affect cognitive function,and the"microbiota-gut-brain axis"has gradually become a hot spot for research. The communication network between gut microbiota and the central nervous system is complex and includes the immune system,nervous system,endocrine sys-tem,and so onmore. This paper review aims to elucidate the effect of gut microbiota on cognitive function and its mechanism and to provide new ideas for the treatment of cognitive dysfunction.
