Feiguin, Jihene Aloulou, Jihene Aloulou, Nouha Bouayed Abdelmoula, Hayet Sellami, Hayet Sellami

“…While bacteria have traditionally been the focus of gut microbiome studies, recent evidence suggests that fungal communities (mycobiota) may also play a crucial role in modulating health, particularly in neuropsychiatric disorders.ObjectiveThis review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current knowledge on the relationship between the gut mycobiome and neuropsychiatric disorders, exploring the potential of targeting fungal communities as a novel therapeutic strategy.MethodsWe summarized recent findings from metagenomic analyses that characterize the diversity and composition of gut mycobiota and discuss how these communities interact with the host and other microorganisms via the gut-brain axis. Key methodologies for studying mycobiota, such as high-throughout sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, were also reviewed to highlight advances in the field.ResultsEmerging research links gut mycobiota dysbiosis to conditions such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, autism spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, and depression. …”
