Abstract: 
Objective: Neuroinflammation may disrupt neurotransmitter signaling. This study investigated whether gut microbiota-induced neuroinflammation can regulate glutamate pathways in bipolar disorder (BD). Methods: Fecal microbiota transplantation was performed to observe behavioral changes in the antibiotic-treated C57 BL/6J male mouse model of bipolar depression. Gut microbial structure, circulating and prefrontal levels of inflammatory factors, microglial activation, and transcription levels of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4 isoxazole receptor (AMPAR) genes were measured in the BD and control mice. Furthermore, the effects of IL-1 receptor antagonist on the glutamate pathways was assessed. Results: Compared with the control mice, BD mice displayed depression-like behaviors, with a lower diversity of gut bacteria and a decreased abundance of certain species. In addition, BD mice showed increased levels of inflammatory factors (e.g., IL-1β) in the serum and prefrontal cortex, microglial activation, and changes in the mRNA levels of NMDAR and AMPAR. Treatment with IL-1 receptor antagonist partially reversed the behavioral patterns, neuroinflammation, and transcription levels of glutamate receptors. Conclusion: The findings suggest that gut microbiota may influence glutamate receptor gene expression via an IL-1β-dependent pathway in a mouse model of BD, potentially contributing to neuroinflammatory mechanisms relevant to this disorder.
