| Short Description | How Commensals Train the Gut Immune System This comprehensive review, co-authored by a Bio2Q researcher, highlights how microbial localization and metabolite production influence the host immune response. It explores promising therapeutic avenues, including engineered probiotics, targeted metabolite delivery, and microbial editing, that can be developed to treat inflammatory diseases such as IBD. Rather than being passive residents, gut microbes are active collaborators in maintaining immune homeostasis. This review serves as a valuable resource for the scientific community, offering insights into the microbiome’s role and the latest developments in the field. |
