The immune system is key to host defense against pathogenic organisms. Aging associated with changes in the system, a decline protective components (immunosenescence), increasing susceptibility infectious disease, and chronic elevation low-grade inflammation (inflammaging), risk of multiple noncommunicable diseases. Nutrition determinant cell function gut microbiota. In turn, microbiota shapes controls inflammatory responses. Many older people show Age-related competence, inflammation, dysbiosis may be interlinked relate, at least part, age-related nutrition. A number micronutrients (vitamins C, D, E zinc selenium) play roles supporting many types. Some trials report that providing these as individual supplements can reverse deficits and/or those insufficient intakes.

The brain and gastrointestinal tract are critical sensory organs responsible for detecting, relaying, integrating, responding to signals derived from the internal external environment. At interface of this function, immune cells in intestines consistently survey environmental factors, eliciting responses that inform on physiological state body. Recent research reveals cross-talk along gut-brain axis regulates inflammatory nociception, responses, homeostasis. Here, we discuss molecular cellular mechanisms involved signaling inflammation across axis. We further highlight interactions between gut inflammation-associated diseases.

Crosstalk between microbiota-gut epithelium system determine individual health status, any crosstalk disturbance may lead to chronic intestinal conditions, such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) celiac disease. Microbiota-derived metabolites are crucial mediators host-microbial interactions. Some beneficially affect host physiology short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) secondary bile acids. Also, tryptophan catabolites responses, through binding aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). AhR is abundantly present at mucosal surfaces when activated enhances epithelial barrier well regulatory responses.

The intestinal surface is constitutively exposed to diverse antigens, such as food food-borne pathogens, and commensal microbes. Intestinal epithelial cells have developed unique barrier functions that prevent the translocation of potentially hostile antigens into body. Disruption increases permeability, resulting in leaky gut syndrome (LGS). Clinical reports suggested LGS contributes autoimmune diseases type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, celiac disease. Furthermore, microbiota plays a critical role regulating host immunity; abnormalities microbial community, known dysbiosis, are observed patients with diseases. However, pathological links among LGS, not been fully elucidated. This review discusses current understanding how pathogenesis by modifying barrier.
