Mucosal Barriers and Host-Microbiota Interplay: Dysbiosis to Barrier Dysfunction, a volume in Elsevier's new series Hot Topics in Physiology, provides an in-depth exploration of mucosal barriers, including their structure, establishment, and consideration of different diseases and intervention strategies. Published in association with the International Union of Physiological Sciences (IUSP), this is an ideal reference for those researching or studying biology and medicine, particularly gastroenterology. Biotechnological companies working on metagenomics sequencing and analysis may also find this volume useful.
As a massive load of commensal microbes, consisting of bacteria, viruses, and fungi resides in the gastrointestinal tract and other mucosal surfaces, collectively termed microbiota, this book provides an update on new and existing knowledge. Mucosal barriers, including the epithelial layers and immune cells act as the frontline to strategically confine these microorganisms and prevent the entry of microbes into the body proper.
