Gut microbiota regulates stress responsivity via the circadian system

Gut microbes are known to modulate stress responsivity and behavior.

The researchers demonstrate that such modulations occur via the circadian system.

The oscillations in gut microbiota composition regulate the diurnal rhythmicity of hypothalamic-pituitaryadrenal (HPA)-axis function, which leads to altered stress responsivity across the day.
