Résumé
It is now well established that imbalance or dysbiosis in the gut microbiota (GM) plays a significant role in neuropsychiatric/neurodegenerative disorders. Recently it has been reported that the C-terminal domain of the heavy chain of tetanus toxin (Hc-TeTx) may not only act as a neuroprotectant but may also exhibit antidepressant effects in Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, a putative animal model of treatment-resistant depression. The aim of this study was to determine whether Hc-TeTx may also interact with GM implicated in mood regulation in these rats. Adult male WKY rats (5/group) were injected intramuscularly (IM) with 60 μg/kg Hc-TeTx or saline. Twenty-four hours after the injection, the animals were sacrificed, intestinal stools were collected and stored at -80°C. DNA was extracted from the samples for 16S rRNA gene-based microbiota analysis using 16S Metagenomics application. Abundance of several bacteria at different taxonomic levels were distinguished between Hc-TeTx group and the control. At species-level, 11 operational taxonomic units (OTUs), particularly Hc-TeTx enhanced probiotic species and suppressed the opportunistic pathogens. Since overall effect of Hc-TeTx appears to be promoting GM associated with mood enhancement (e.g.

OBJECTIVE
It is now well established that imbalance or dysbiosis in the gut microbiota (GM) plays a significant role in neuropsychiatric/neurodegenerative disorders.

The aim of this study was to determine whether Hc-TeTx may also interact with GM implicated in mood regulation in these rats.
