摘要:

抑郁症不仅是一种中枢神经系统疾病,还与肝功能密切相关。研究表明,抑郁症患者出现肝脏代谢异常,同时肝病患者患有抑郁症的风险显著升高。肠-肝-脑轴是一个重要的代谢和信号传导途径,通过调节胆汁酸、脂质和氨基酸代谢,使肝脏对抑郁症的发展产生影响。目前的研究主要集中于肠道菌群在抑郁症中的作用,而肝脏的调节作用尚未得到充分探讨。本研究系统地回顾了肝脏代谢如何通过肠-肝-脑轴调节抑郁症,并提出了基于肝脏代谢调节抑郁症的潜在干预策略,包括饮食调节和中医药疗法,为抑郁症的临床诊断和治疗提供了新的视角。

Abstract:

Depression is not only a central nervous system disorder but is also closely related to liver function. Research indicates that individuals with depression frequently show hepatic metabolic abnormalities, and those suffering from liver diseases present a significantly elevated risk for developing depressive symptoms. The gut-liver-brain axis is a crucial metabolic and signaling pathway. It allows the liver to impact the development of depression by regulating the metabolism of bile acids, lipids, and amino acids. Current research primarily focuses on the role of gut microbiota in depression, while the liver′s regulatory roles have not been adequately explored. This study systematically reviews how hepatic metabolism affects depression through the gut-liver-brain axis and proposes potential intervention strategies based on hepatic metabolic regulation for depression, including dietary modification and Chinese medicine therapy, offering novel perspectives for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of depression.
