Studying the host-microbiota interaction in the human gastrointestinal tract: basic concepts and in vitro approaches

2011-03-19

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria in the human gut exceed the number of cells in our body by a 100-fold. At the level of the gastrointestinal epithelium, a constant battle is fought for equilibrium between the microbiota and the human body. These interactions play a key role in many aspects of host health, influencing energy harvest from food, colonization by pathogens, and the immune system, to name but a few. Unfortunately, the study of...
