Dynamic interactions between gut microbiota and a host's innate and adaptive immune systems play key roles in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and inhibiting inflammation. The gut microbiota metabolizes proteins and complex carbohydrates, synthesize vitamins, and produce an enormous number of metabolic pro...
Interactions between the gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids and the immune system in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantationThe gut microbiota (GM) is essential for human health and contributes to several diseases; indeed it can be considered an extension of the self...
The microbiome has an important role in human health. Changes in the microbiota can confer resistance to or promote infection by pathogenic bacteria. Antibiotics have a profound impact on the microbiota that alters the nutritional landscape of the gut an
The gut microbiota influences development1–3 and homeostasis4–7 of the mammalian immune system, and is associated with human inflammatory8 and immune diseases9,10 as well as responses to immunotherapy11–14. Nevertheless, our understanding of how gut b
gut microbiota in the formation of a fully functional immune system was identified in GF animals [28]. As a go-to animal model for bacteria-host interactions, GF animals display distinct features in the gut, including an immature mucus system, unformed gut-associated lymphoid tissues, and a ...
Crosstalk between skin microbiota and immune system in health and disease The US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases hosted a two-day virtual workshop on skin microbial communities and their interactions with the host immune system in health and disease. The aim of the workshop ...
Therefore, the gut epithelium must have a delicate strategy to prevent pathogens, control microbiota, and maintain its structural and functional integrity. Insects like many other metazoans share common aspects of gut–microbe interactions and gut physiology, including host-gut microbe symbiosis, ...
The latest high-throughput sequencing technologies show that there are more than 1000 types of microbiota in the human gut. These microbes are not only important to maintain human health, but also closely related to the occurrence and development of vari
Increased understanding of the interactions between the gut microbiota, diet and environmental effects may allow us to design efficient treatment strategies for addressing global health problems. Existence of symbiotic microorganisms in the human gut provides different functions for the host such as conversi...
