“…Apart from gastrointestinal diseases and metabolic diseases, the intestinal microbiota was also associated with a variety of systemic diseases, such as neurological, respiratory, cardiovascular, and oncological diseases 40 . Moreover, previous studies have shown that FEMT reduced depression and enhance the activity and diversity of the intestinal flora 41 . We found that musical interventions during feeding, statistically increased the richness of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus , while exponentially reduced the production of Cyanobacteria , Bacteroidetes , Phaseolus_acutifolius_tepary_bean and uncultured_bacterium_f_Muribaculaceae in intestinal microorganisms.…”

Gut microbiota is established to be associated with the diversity of gastrointestinal conditions, but information on the variation associated with music and gut microbes is limited. Current study revealed the impacts of music intervention during feeding on the growth performance and gut microbes of mice by using clinical symptoms and 16S rRNA sequencing techniques. The results showed that feeding mice with music had a significant increase in body weight after the 25th day. The Firmicutes and Proteobacteria were the most dominant phylum in the gut microbiota. Also, the relative abundance of the dominant bacteria was variable after musical intervention. In contrast to the control group, a significant decrease in alpha diversity analysis of gut bacterial microorganisms and Metastats analysis showed a significant increase in the relative abundance of 5 genera and one phylum after the music intervention. Moreover, the musical intervention during feeding caused modifications in the gut microbial composition of mice, as evidenced by an increase in the level of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus, while decreases the richness of pathogenic bacteria, e.g. Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria and Muribaculaceae, etc. In summary, music intervention increased body weight and enhanced the abundance of beneficial bacteria by reducing the prevalence of pathogenic bacteria in gut microbiota of mice.
