Figure 2. Diurnal regulation of small intestinal REG3γ secretion.
Description
In response to feeding rhythms, SFB and Lactobacillus spp activate TLR-MyD88-IL22 pathways, thereby leading to REG3γ secretion by SI epithelial cells. In turn, REG3γ inhibits the expansion of luminal microbes and mucosal-associated bacteria. Diurnal consumption of food and microbial oscillations, in turn, influence the diurnal activity of the host, such as liver rhythmicity.
