Abstract: Recent studies have revealed that the gut microbiota modulates brain development and behavior, but the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here, we show that bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN) derived from the commensal gut microbiota can… read more here.

Abstract: Interleukin-36 (IL-36) cytokines are important regulators of mucosal homeostasis and inflammation. We have previously established that oral epithelial cells upregulate IL-36γ expression in response to the bacterial pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis. ABSTRACT Interleukin-36 (IL-36) cytokines are… read more here.
