Gut bacteria influence daily cycles of tryptophan processing in a stressed digestive system

Abstract
A 15-minute acute stressor significantly affects tryptophan metabolism in mice.
- Acute stress is linked to changes in gut barrier function and tryptophan metabolism.
- Microbial species that show rhythmic activity are involved in tryptophan metabolism.
- The response of the gastrointestinal system to stress varies depending on the time of day.
- Stress-induced changes were observed specifically in the ileum and colon regions.
