Inulin supplementation mitigates gut dysbiosis and brain impairment induced by mild traumatic brain injury during chronic phase

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

This results in reduced levels of putatively beneficial bacteria which in turn leads to the reduction of short-chain fatty_acids (SCFAs), bacterial metabolites that play a key role in modulating metabolism, vascular response, and inflammation system-wide. The authors determined if prebiotic inulin could mitigate injury-induced dysbiosis and restore CBF and WMI by modulating gut microbiome from 3 months post injury (mpi) to 5 mpi. Ten mice were placed in the Sham group and ten mice were placed in the closed head injury (CHI) group. Volume 4, Issue 2 With diet, the authors . . .
