Multi-omics unveils strain-specific neuroactive metabolite production linked to inflammation modulation by Bacteroides and their extracellular vesicles by Basit Yousuf, Walid Mottawea, Galal Ali Esmail, Nazila Nazemof, Nour Elhouda Bouhlel, Emmanuel Njoku, Yingxi Li, Xu Zhang, Zoran Minic, Riadh Hammami

“…Using untargeted and targeted metabolomics, we identified key neurotransmitter-related or precursor metabolites, including GABA, l-tryptophan, 5-HTP, normelatonin, kynurenic acid, l-tyrosine, and norepinephrine, in a strain- and media-specific manner, with GABA (1–2 mM) being the most abundant. Additionally, extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by Bacteroides harbor multiple neuroactive metabolites, mainly GABA, and related key enzymes. …”
