Abstract The gut microbiota and immune system maintain intestinal homeostasis regulate physiology in concert with the enteric nervous (ENS). However, underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Using wildtype T-cell deficient germ-free mice colonized segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) or specific pathogen-free (SPF) microbiota, we studied regulation of ENS motility.

How the gut microbiota and immune system maintain intestinal homeostasis in concert with enteric nervous (ENS) remains incompletely understood. To address this gap, we assessed small transit, neuronal density, neurogenesis, microbiota, cell populations cytokines wildtype T-cell deficient germ-free mice colonized specific pathogen-free (SPF) conventionally raised SPF segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB)-monocolonized mice. increased transit a T cell-dependent manner. density myenteric submucosal plexuses of ileum colon, similar to mice, independently cells.

Together, these findings provide new insights into microbiota-neuroimmune dialog regulates physiology.
