Journal Club | Bacteria Act on Your Nerves

Mar.23.2019

Time:10:00 - 13:00

Location:Room 348, Wangkezhen Building

Abstract:



Can microorganisms influence our nervous system? In host–pathogen interactions, bacterial pathogens produce pain by directly activating sensory neurons that modulate inflammation. Microbial metabolites could influence microglia and astrocytes in the CNS thus modulate inflammation and neurodegeneration in nervous system. These findings inspire us to form deeper understand of the relationship between pathogen/microbiota, neuron system and immune system in Physiology.
