Tryptophan-steroid interactions in the brain-gut-microbiome axis: Neuroactive metabolites as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Tryptophan metabolism plays a central role in connecting the brain, gut, and microbiome. Microbial and host-derived metabolites influence intestinal integrity, immune activity, and neural signaling, while steroid and neurosteroid hormones shape these…
