Microbiota and Immune System
Description
Host immune system is crucial for preserving homeostasis with the microbial species. The mucus layer, the secretion of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) and immunoglobulin A (IgA) by lamina propria plasma cells, and the presence of dendritic cells (DC) are some of the immune system mechanisms that help to limit the luminal microbes, to reduce the interaction of the microorganisms and the immune system, and to minimize bacterial-epithelial contact.
