Microbiota-Immunity Axis in the Different Pathological Disorders

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, interest in the human microbiota, which supports numerous physiological functions ranging from digestion to the production of essential metabolites, has increased significantly. A crucial role of the microbiota is its interaction with the immune system, promoting its natural development and modulating its responses to various types of pathogens. However, in the context of dysbiosis or immune dysregulation, the microbiota–immunity axis can have significant impacts on the development of various diseases, including autoimmunity, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration and cancer. Therefore, the aim of this Topic is to create a collection of papers focusing on the characterization of the microbiota–immunity axis in light of the development of human diseases.
