Abstract | The gut microbiota regulates intestinal immunity, but whether immune activation reciprocally alters gut commensals is unknown. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Becattini et al. used a reductionist approach, incorporating gnotobiotic mouse models and multi-omics analyses, to address how gut commensals respond and adapt to acute immune activation. |
