Reflections on the Use of an Invertebrate Chordate Model System for Studies of Gut Microbial Immune Interactions
The functional ecology of the gastrointestinal tract impacts host physiology, and its dysregulation is at the center of various diseases. The immune system, and specifically innate immunity, plays a fundamental role in modulating the interface of host and microbes in the gut. While humans remain a p...
