ASD (autism spectrum disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder influenced by genes and the environment. This study investigated the protective effects of bovine MFGM (BMFGM) and goat MFGM (GMFGM) supplementation on ASD model mice. Analysis of phospholipid composition showed higher levels of phosphatidylcholine in BMFGM and phosphatidylethanolamine in GMFGM. Behavioral results indicated MFGMs ameliorated social deficits, with GMFGM being more effective. MFGMs mitigated neuroinflammation by suppressing microglial overactivation and proinflammatory cytokines expression, meanwhile GMFGM increased the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10. MFGMs also altered gut microbiota composition and maintained gut barrier integrity. Uniquely, GMFGM increased butyrate production. Correlation analysis revealed positive associations between social behavior, levels of phosphatidylcholine, sphingomyelin, and the abundance of Allobaculum, Clostridium_sensu_stricto, and Turicibacter. Overall, these findings revealed the protective effects of MFGMs on neurodevelopment in ASD animal models and the underlying mechanism could be partly explained by their regulation of gut microbiota by the phospholipid components in MFGMs.
