Highlights • Neuro-immune crosstalk occurs in distinct anatomical niches in the intestine.• Neuro-immune cell niches maintain gut homeostasis and modulate inflammation.• Neuron-macrophage crosstalk in the muscularis is crucial for neuronal survival and peristalsis.• Mast cell mediators activate and sensitize nerve terminals, leading to aberrant pain perception.• Neurons modulate ILC function during infection and inflammation.
