Vestibular deficit is a very common disorder in clinical practice and is characterized by vertigo, spontaneous nystagmus, and autonomic nervous symptoms, including nausea, vomiting, and sweating. In addition, the comorbidity of vestibular deficit and anxiety has long been an integral component of the medical literature. Previous studies have suggested that the mechanisms underlying this comorbidity involved overlap of vestibular and cerebellar networks. Emerging evidence has shown that the microbiota–gut–brain axis plays a key role in the regulation of affective disorders. Thus, we hypothesized that the gut microbiota may be involved in the comorbidity of vestibular deficit and anxiety. To verify this, we constructed a unilateral labyrinthectomy mouse model to simulate vestibular deficit. Then, 16S rRNA gene sequencing and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) were used to analyze the microbiome and metabolome of the cecal samples collected from mice in the unilateral labyrinthectomy, sham surgery, and control groups. Notably, unilateral labyrinthectomy shaped the composition of the mouse gut microbiome, resulting in increased abundance of Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 group , Odoribacter and Roseburia and decreased abundance of Prevotella and Parasutterella at the genus level. Tax4Fun functional prediction indicated a decrease in tryptophan metabolism in mice in the unilateral labyrinthectomy group. Moreover, functional correlation of changes in gut microbes and metabolites between different groups showed that the oleamide level was negatively correlated with Odoribacter abundance (r = -0.89, p = 0.0002). The butyric acid level was positively correlated with Parasutterella abundance (r = 0.85, p = 0.0010). The propanoate level was negatively correlated with Prevotella abundance (r = -0.81, p = 0.0020). The 20-HETE level was positively correlated with Parasutterella abundance (r = 0.84, p = 0.0013). The altered microbes and metabolites were closely related to the pathogenesis of affective disorders. Our results not only offer novel insights into the vestibular deficit comorbid with anxiety but also build an important basis for future research on this etiology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
