ABSTRACT
We aimed to investigate ampicillin (AMP) mechanisms in microbiota-gut-brain axis. We evaluated its effect on two gut and brain regions and behavioral performances. We administred AMP (1 g/l) to BALB/c mice for 21 days. Then, we analyzed body weigth change, stool consistency scoring, gut length, intestinal microbiota composition, nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2) expression and tissue integrity. We subsequently evaluated NOS2, GFAP, CD68 and NFL cerebral expression and spatial memory.Interestingly, our data showed gut microbiota disruption, NOS2 upregulation and tissue damage, associated to cerebral NOS2, GFAP, CD68 and NFL over-expression and behavioral alteration. Antiobiotic therapy should be prescribed with great caution.
