[HTML][HTML] Neuro-immune regulation of mucosal physiology

J Chesné, V Cardoso, H Veiga-Fernandes - Mucosal immunology, 2019 - Elsevier
Mucosal barriers constitute major body surfaces that are in constant contact with the external
environment. Mucosal sites are densely populated by a myriad of distinct neurons and
immune cell types that sense, integrate and respond to multiple environmental cues. In the
recent past, neuro-immune interactions have been reported to play central roles in mucosal
health and disease, including chronic inflammatory conditions, allergy and infectious
diseases. Discrete neuro-immune cell units act as building blocks of this bidirectional multi …
