Conclusions
These results encourage the research of novel therapeutics to enhance MSCs-exo treatment for AD, which could benefit a broader range of patients with AD.
Methods
In this original research study, we used MSCs-exo to treat 5 ×FAD mice and fed them antibiotic cocktails for 1 week to detect cognitive ability and neuropathy. The mice's feces were collected to investigate alterations in the microbiota and metabolites.
Results
The results revealed that the AD gut microbiota eliminated the therapeutic effect of MSCs-exo, whereas antibiotic modulation of disordered gut microbiota and associated metabolites enhanced the therapeutic effect of MSCs-exo. Conclusions: These results encourage the research of novel therapeutics to enhance MSCs-exo treatment for AD, which could benefit a broader range of patients with AD.
