Abstract:
The etiology of Alzheimer′s disease (AD) is unknown. A growing number of studies have shown that the gut microbiome is closely related to the occurrence and development of AD. The gut microbiome affects the central nervous system by gut-brain axis, which also affects cognitive function, mental and behavior symptoms. In addition, The gut microbiome is closely associated with clinical biomarkers of AD. Cognitive function can be enhanced by improving the gut microbiome of AD patients. The, research progress in this field provides new study ideas for the prevention and treatment of AD, particularly for early diagnosis.
